Formula 18, Hobie Tiger or similar. Trapezing for the helm is easier then hiking on a cat so dont let that put you off. Dont let prejudice against cats put you off a type of sailing that could keep you in the sport, there all sailboats. Try one. Darryn

http://www.sailimages.com/gallery/picture.php?cat=11&ima ge_id=184&expand=6,11,6 I hope this link works. If it does you'll have to admit it - it's one hell of a good looking boat. |

Looks more like an ole flying fifteen shacked up with a 70's throw back xtra inefficient genny added for effect , brought a tear to me ole salt encrusted eye , if it wasn't for me wooden legs would give one a bash , These new fangled wotsit skuff jobs look like pants wetters to me , I like me ole barkers in the watter , safer that way and keeps the baccy dry ! Plenty room on Dutcmen too for sandwiches and flask o tea . Pop yur sarny in a XX er sail pocket and kiss it goodbye .
