what sorta boats you sail
I am 15 and an Aussie! I sail and race a Hobie cat 14 Turbo solo in Geographe bay Busselton. we get wind speeds in the summer that vary from 35 knots to nill. last weekend i was on the wire screeming along in a 20 knot breeze when i pitch poled and was slung well past the jib!!!
Hi, I'm 16 and I fly a Hobie 14 TJ, which I call the 'Orange Beast'. I've currently only been sailing it with the old config i.e. just the main sail, coz the jib blocks have messed up
. Its still easy to good speed tho coz of my perfect mast rake and my skill (yeah rite). Anyway just saying 'Hi' as this is my first post
hello i'm 17 and i race a isotope. I live in nc and saw that some of you live around me. come out and sail with us at the carolina sailing club we have a nice little fleet of cats and need more boats.
I'm Jan , 9 years old. I sail a Newcat 12, my grandfather bougt it for me and my younger brother Simon, 7 years old. We sail on a lake in the Netherlands. When the wind is too strong I'm afraid, then I sail my Optimist, or with my dad on his cat!
When I am bigger I like a Hobie 14

I sail pretty much anything I can get my hands on, provided it goes fast. I have been winning in the Hobie Wave, but am looking to move to a crewed boat...probably the Hobie 16 (what a beast!), or onto a Laser Radial (Hey, who needs crew anyway!).
Here at my club, we have the Wave, H16, and a Hobie Dragoon. Several of our members have more high-performance cats that I get to sail on from time to time.
My last FAAAAAST sail was during the Trimaran Nationals...I got to spend the week sailing on a F28 aft cabin.

Hey, I'm Matthew Whitehead. I own a Viper F16. It's a fun boat to sail. I think it's a perfect boat for youth cat sailing. It will actually be the boat used in the 2011 Youth Multihull Nationals in California in two summers. Great boat. If anyone is intersted, you should look into sailing for the next youth Nationals. http:/
I hope to see you all there. <img src="<>/laugh.gif" alt="laugh" title="laugh" height="15" width="15" />
