[quote=MN3]I have been caught in bad weather many times... here in the gulf area it gets bad... fast.... this was discussed last year on catsailor.com. I stated that i have never seen a cat on the water get hit. this was re-enforced by others. i have only heard of cats getting hit only on the beach. I heard of a girl sitting on a sunfish was hit.. it blew holes in her hulls but she was fine (probably needed new underware)... I hear the heat vaporizes the water in the hulls and creates 100's of pinholes. Rick White said he delivered 100's of yachts in his life and never saw a boat underway get hit.. but mored.. beached and "worst".. grounded boats (use some type of grounding strap) get hit much more...<!-- editby --><em>edited by: andrewscott, Apr 27, 2009 - 09:40 AM</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
