Agreed with above. I'm new to cat sailing and this forum, and was worried a bit about being 'flamed' as the 'new guy who doesn't know what's up', but so far, my few topics I've posted about have been met with great response and help. I really appreciate it guys!

The sharpie idea is a good one. I don't mind having marked up rudders/adjustment points if they are functional marks!

I'm a newbie to catsailing myself and have had nothing but positive experiences here!! The people are friendly and respond very quickly. There are a few people who have been doing this for a long time and seem to be very committed to helping us new people out and growing the sport. That's an awesome thing!

A place like this makes getting into the sport sooo much easier and less intimidating than it was when I started about 20 years ago. Back then you had to guess if something would work and pray it did. πŸ™‚

I concur. Not a newbie but I've learned more about sailing on this site and since I went from an HT14 to a 5.8na this site has given me the knowledge and confidence to really enjoy my cat. Great for technical assistance also. I talk this site up on my beach all the time. Its more than an Craigs list for cat sailors.
