Hey sailors!
Been living and working on boats for years, East Coast, Caribbean, and Great Lakes. Well I'm home for the summer, first time in a long time, in northern Minnesota. Itching to get back out on the water, so its time for me to buy a cat to play with for the summer.
Been searching my area for anything 16-20', seems pretty limited for choices around here. As far as cats I've only ever been on Hobie 16's, and not partial to a particular brand.
Came across a Nacra 5.8 for sale, from what I've read they seem to be great boats (never been on one). I'm going to go take a look on Saturday.
Looking for any helpful buyers advice, what to look for/expect, and what do you think about a Nacra 5.8 being first cat?
-EDIT-
I will usually be out sailing with a friend, but I'm sure there will be days I'd like to go out alone. Is this too much boat to rig/step mast/sail solo?
