I'll take a list of cats off for you down at Mount Batten for you tommorrow but reckon the fleet from memory is mainly Hobbies and not too active. Think there are a few cats at the other clubs so will keep you posted on what's about in the area. ------------- Dennis Watson 49er GBR735 http://www.helensburghsailingclub.co.uk/ - Helensburgh S.C http://www.noblemarine.co.uk/home.php3?affid=560 - Boat Insurance from Noble Marine |

There's really no cat racing in plymouth and only mountbatten will accept cats for storage which is why we have taken ours down to Pentewan nr St.Austell . the other place to try is Starcrooss on the Exe |

Cat racing in Plymouth is dead - that is a shame as they used to host some good events there. As the membership Sec for Pentewan Sands sailing club I can confirm we have a healthy cat fleet consisting of F18 - Shadow - Dart 18 and assorted others. The club have boats for hire to boatless members at very reasonable rates. ------------- Cornwall - 2 coasts and one big ocean |

Why not try Swansea Uni!!! there's an active fleet of Cats including F16, A Class, Tornado, F18 and the obligatory Dart 18 at Mumbles YC which is only 4miles from the campus.
