I’ll throw my anchor into the ring and also suggest the Getaway. I rented one in Cancun and was surprised on the performance and ease of use. Previous...

Impressive video, you’re a very squared away salt! T. Stein, BMCS USCG, (RET)

Supercat’s can be wickedly fast but wet, wet, wet. Large volume of buoyancy in bows but parts can be challenging.

MN3 on point once again! I sense your sage advice comes from years of practical experience and hard sailing. I believe a vast majority of us sail cats...

A career spent in the Coast Guard using Boeshield T-9 for most corrosion applications is the go-to product for wiping down metal after long exposure. ...

Squirtin’ a bead is sure to get good results without leaks

Nice job Dude! Thanks for the pictures and detail information. Did you use thickened epoxy to remount the deck?

Thanks for the share. Looks pretty straightforward and doable. Anyone know of wings in VA?

Wings on the Getaway is like a magic carpet ride for kids and kids at heart. Hulls can take abuse and carry increased load. Basically a sound beginner...

I could use the wings if someone wants to sell them!
