Thanks for reminding me (placing camera in bag). I've read the setup procedures a couple of times, but I learn by doing. Brett

After much back and forth, I decided to check out a couple of boats on the west coast. One was an older Nacra "Mk1" Infusion, the other was a 2012 C2....

Good info John; thanks.

C2.

I understand what you're saying, but I'm not sure what I can do execpt keep the old CA title, which would be in someone else's name. ADOT doesn't issu...

MN3: No, since it does not have a motor. It wouldn't be registered with AZDOT anyway, but with Fish and Game instead (if it had a motor). But, to cros...

Thanks.

It looks like the black ones are wider than the white ones in the picture. If you have sail material rubbing against these, I would think wider is bet...

Thanks Sam. See what he wants for it and PM me if he's interested.

Sam; Good point about self-righting. I'd have to check if I can get enough leverage from a "power" pole attached to the dolphin striker with lines or ...

I contacted someone about a used Viper and asked some questions about condition. He told me the tramp kept pulling out of the front groove, and there ...

Geez, 5? Are you married? 🙂 Truthfully, I can only maintain so much. I'd rather sell something than let it gather weeds.

It's even worse here in AZ. Everything I'm looking at is far away. We aren't exactly a formula anything mecca. There are two i20's available nearby, a...

Yeah, I'm under 340, about 195 by myself. I can solo the H18 myself on light days, which we have lots of here. We get heavy winds during summer monso...

So, all of these terms (reacher, screacher, hooter, ...) are interchangable? As stated above by Bruiser, the flatter spin could be used upwind in lig...

This is interesting. Most of the cats I've looked at just say whether they have a spin or not, not which kind or what it's strong points are. But, I'm...

Yeah, looking isn't much fun, especially when most of the interesting boats are clear across the country. I'm going to ask for lots of pictures befor...

Is carbon fiber still too expensive to make a mast out of? I don't see many boats with it available. It seems like that would help quite a bit, with ...

MN3: I don't think we have enough of any one type to do a class race. There's probably more H16's here than anything else, but I don't want an H16. I'...
