So, I'm very intrigued by the hydrofoil testimonials. I'm on West
Marine right now, looking at the choices:
http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/producte/10001/-1/10001/83366/377%20710%201708/0/Hydrofoils/Primary%20Search/mode%20matchallpartial/0/0?N=377%20710%201708&Ne=0&Ntt=Hydrofoils&Ntx=mode%20matchallpartial&page=CategoryDisplayLevel1&isLTokenURL=true&storeNum=6&subdeptNum=240&classNum=384
Does anyone know the diff between these 2? I looked thru the entire
Stingray site and couldn't find the models referenced.
---------------
StingRay Hydrofoil, SR-XPII White 8678526 SR-XPII-2
Only $69.99 USD
StingRay Hydrofoil, SR-XRII White 8678559 SR-XRIII-2 Sale
$119.99 USD
?
Thanks,
-Micah
