[quote=MN3]lots of guys turn to a-cats as they get older and don't want to wrasstle a 30' mast and or a 400 - 500 lbs boat
about a decade ago they held the Harken A-Cat races on our causeway
we watched these 60 and 70 year olds single hand their masts and boats like it was made of straw.
I asked one of the sailors if i could feel how light his dagger board was - he said "i will cost you $15,000, because after you feel it .. you will [del]want[/del] need one" - he then handed me the board. it felt lighter than the bungee i used on my hobie18 dagger board
If our area was better suited for a-cats, i probably would have one
(we have very shallow bays and lots of sea grass and tons of floating grass that washed in from the gulf at certain times of the year - i heard it was from boats that drag nets on the seafloor but not sure where it comes from)[/quote]
