Comment by Alex on April 2, 2013 at 12:16pm: There's also the crabclaw group - I'm sure they'd appreciate any firsthand info.

Comment by Alex on April 3, 2013 at 2:23am: Ah well.... In that case post here. I suppose the rest of the forum is cat orientated.

Comment by Jeremy Walker on April 17, 2013 at 1:50pm: If basic info like sail and wetted surface area are of interest, I can start by giving sail area from memory and which is about 115 sq ft.

Comment by Raf on July 13, 2013 at 12:35am: Very beatiful Jeremy
