Buddy of mine considered a tilting trailer but instead takes his Tornado apart. Says that with tilting trailers you have to be really careful of cros...

Kevin- If you're ever interested, there is a group in Michigan called CRAM (www.cramsailing.com). They mostly sail A-Cat, F17, and F18 but also usua...

Ha - My first experience sailing my H18 uni was this weekend. I had one of my jib-sheet pigtails part in the middle of a race. Furled the jib and sa...

IMHO: an H18 is an excellent, fun-to-sale, robust, and reliable boat. There are a few precautions I have found after going through this the last 18 m...

Condition of daggers and shrouds looks a bit disconcerting. However, I'm sure its worth every bit of current bid price (currently $400(!)) including ...

Can't identify the boat, but it seems the hulls were swapped. Looks like a bridle-wire attachment point is on the outside of the port hull.

I'm no expert, but I'd guess a Tiger without a spinnaker downwind would be a lot like my H18 (perhaps even slower since there is less sail area?). On...

I'm on Clear Lake (In Steuben Cty), not Cedar Lake (in Lagrange Cty). We had a couple of canoists get caught in the nasty storm, but nobody was hurt....

I believe that's a C-Scow. We have a small fleet of them on Clear Lake (NE Indiana) and are one of the fastest inland mono's out there - that I know ...

Think of a windsurfer (the ultimate rudderless sailboat): One moves the sail toward the bow to foot-off (head away from the wind) and toward the aft ...

FWIW, I did some small spots on my H18 using Marine Tex. It sanded out and polished just like the surrounding gel coat. The white color is close eno...

You might be interested in the Red Fox Regatta at lake Charlevoix that weekend. Water is chilly; probably mid-60's that time of year.
