Luke Lawrence, 16, grew up on cats -- his parents raced Hobie 18 and then Nacra 6.0. But now he sails Lasers and just got picked for the new US Sailing Elite Youth Development Team -- one of three kids in the country for full Laser, and he is No. 1 in the country in his age bracket.

But he still races cats, too, so it will be interesting to see how he does at the Youth Multihull Championship.
By the way, his folks rented a Blade F16 for Luke and his crew to practice on, since there are no SL16's available in South Florida where they live.
