I knew that would come up... <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

EDIT: Wait, you did it again!!!!! I said: "There are so many cat designs already on the market already, I'm just not seeing another design as the answer." You took issue with that, then you point to the design that proves my point:

"But seriously, you are looking for this boat http://www.hobie-cat.net/site_gb/?produits,hobie_catsy"

That is a nice boat that might do the trick. It would be best with the small main and no jib. It's still a bit bigger and more powerful than the Opti, but close enough. Now, how do we get that into the yacht clubs and cats into colleges?
