Very Cool...Good Luck on your adventure. Is there anything Randy Smyth hasn't done on Catamaran?? Guy is amazing!!

Pete, just to be clear. These are the official press releases, sent out by Beverly J. Simmons, Worrell 1000 Race Communications Director. I Gotcha......

Damon this write up is spot on...it's like you were here too...

We stayed overnight in Daytona and saw them all come in....and watched them leave the next morning...It's just an awesome experience!! Not sure why I...

My Buddy sails his Mystere 6.0 on Lake George quite a bit. Maybe I can set you two up. Let me know.

570 is a great choice as it is boomless and boardless..maybe a bit much solo. Maybe a 500 is batter choice. I sail mine solo all the time and just don...

Slo Sail and Canvas...upgrade the stitching.

I also think something changed during that process because you couldn't post anything in a forum previously without being a member if I remember corre...

There sure are some interesting upgrades. Yeah my thoughts exaclty...seems well taken care of too!!

Raking the mast back can be a benefit to pointing higher upwind. You won't feel much difference moving one hole at at time and could give up before yo...

Even 1 hole will move the upper part of the mast back significantly enough to where your sheet lead for your jib will have to be changed. If the 5.0's...

I would bump it back 1 hole and see how it does. Yeah that's the plan. Doing a distance race at the end of the month...will report back. Thanks.

East Coast Sailboats is bringing a Nacra 500 MK2 and a Nacra 570 MK2 for demos (and more importantly, for sale). Very cool...wish I lived closer. I w...

When you do this also rake your rudders under the stern more. 1 step at a time...not sure what to expect by raking the mast back...if it doesn't seem ...

So I have sailed with other Cats and get killed to weather because I can't point as high. I am going to attempt to rake my mast back just a bit the n...

An older boat that's been sailed a lot that shows no stress cracking in the gel coat would be worth the risk. Perhaps the newer boats that are made by...

Hard to believe, but perhaps the rudder kick up feature failed somehow. I can easily see that happening if the rudders remained locked down when hitti...

I Grew up sailing on a SC17 and loved them. Only boat I would own other than my 500. However after learning that they had transome issues I went with...

Now, Nacra jibs are very small, so it probably really doesn't make much difference especially if a spinnaker is involved. But when close hauled, if yo...

There's another important difference between the 5.0 and the 500. The 500, and all Nacras for that matter, have switched to rectangular shaped cross b...

Better Yet...buy the Mystere 4.3 on this site in MD for $1000. 6" difference in total length. Mystere is built in Canada and you should still get su...

I can imagine there aren't many 460's for sale as they are produced in Europe now. Try looking for a 450 or a 4.5. It's the same boat. I had a 450 ...

So I believe the hull shape is the same on 5.0 and 500. 500 has a modified rudder system and they moved the jib blocks to the front crossbar. Square...

As a current 500 owner I 2nd the opinion of John...5.0 is the way to go. Too bad you weren't in the market a few weeks ago as there was a nice 87 5.0...

tarch...so it's 16' and under doesn't need to be registered...I wouldn't sweat the extra foot. It would take a real asshole to get out his measuring ...

tarch...I am not positive but I don't believe the state of FL requires a non-powered vessel 17' or less to be registered. And NACRA bows are very for...
