What leverage are people liking for 18 ft catamarans? I've got a 5:1 mainsheet block on my Nacra 5.2 and remembering last season that it tugged a bit (low to medium winds, lake sailing).
Harkem has a 57mm carbon triple that could get me to 6:1. This particular unit has a racketing system that engages under high load ... seems like it works like a car seat belt. Wouldn't that be bad if you caught alot of wind? Seems like it would tip the boat over.
