Just bought a Stilitto 23. Previous owner was not helpful in the set up and breakdown. He owned the boat for 2 years and bought and kept it in the same place. Can not advise us on preparing it for trailer. Boat is currently set up on trailer but I need to move it. Have no clue how to break it down and lower mast. I live in Grapevine Tx and Have seen a S27 on the lake here just showed up last couple of weeks. Look forward to the change over. Currently have been racing on an Olson 30 so going fast is in the blood have stab le crew of three is that enough for this boat. I know there is going to be a huge learning curve. I need all the help any one can give
Thank you
Gene

Holy, that is one heck of a first boat!!! As a start I would suggest contacting Stilletto http://www.stilettocatamarans.com/ and getting the manual. They have a forum can probably give some advice. I'm not sure that there are many Stiletto owners on here but we can give general advice on rigging and such.
Regards,
Dave
