Built for NARTREK Bronze streamer and parachute duration flights. Avast, me proud beauty! Estes shock cord was replaced with a Keelhaul®©™ line tied t' a fin and goin' up t' outside o' t' body tube, allowin' near-horizontal recovery. Ahoy! Estes streamer was replaced for duration flights with a wide pleated Mylar streamer and a Mylar chute. Rocket nay painted until after duration flights.

I went back t' t' Yankee, put in a B6-6 (I was out o' -4s) friction fitted more securely, and switched over t' a new, arrr, 6 x 120 cm streamer I made late last night usin' t' same materials and techniques as for t' other streamer. It flew well with a descent decent, 50-some seconds which put me in first place though was nay as long as some o' me previous flights.
