The Mumbles cat fleet is growing fairly quickly at the moment; you could post a free add on our web site; you never know... more and more interest is being shown in single handers becaus many of us work weird hours. |

You call that cheap! Yes, after numerous phone calls to the Dinghy Store that's the one they iterated to in the end (£13800), but I would be interested to see what somebody else got quoted... that was ready to race, including VAT, excluding delivery. By comparison, a new R2R AHPC Flyer via Pieter Saarberg is around £10.5k and is just a ferry ride away to Zandvoort... A new R2R XJ is £9200 but is a fair treck away to Rimini. A good option is a second had boat via Pieter S; he usually has good boats for sale... edit: apart from now; the WC has cleaned hi out.

Has anybody got any experience sailing a Nacra A2; specifically are those bows as twitchy as they look? I know Pete Melvin won the worlds in one recently in predominately light airs (I think) but he's a rock star and I'm not, so I'm really interested in how mere mortals find the boat... Latest price from Dinghy Store (Datchet) is a whopping £13,800 ex delivery. I'd also be very interested in how single-handed F16s do against A-Classes, do the A-Classes usually win or visa versa; or does it simply depend on the sailor...?
