Loose Change 0 Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Mozzies are not rocket science, anyone with general carpentry skills can build one. No specialised knowledge or tools required. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Damo 1 Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Hi Fastenergy I sent you a PM regarding the build but as far as Local Mozzies I can put you in touch with two local Mozzies that race in south Brisbane both race with kites and very helpful. One sails out of Sampsonvale dam and the other at Wivenhoe dam, some times out of Cleveland YC, let me know if I can help. Cheers Damien Quote Link to post Share on other sites
