i really agree with you maverick, never give up on something you enjoy....

Thought I would update this old post, I have lost 56kg and been out in my PA a few times no problem and even some other models... feeling great just took a package from work and going to travel oz for 6-12 months, looking to upgrade the PA to a TI to enjoy taking with my kids

Outstanding Mick, what a huge effort. Great to hear that you're upgrading the yak instead of throwing in the towel. :thumbsup:
