What’s the best performing cat that can also handle the surf ??
My neighbor has an old prindle 16, which handles the surf good, but does not perform well in our light to moderate wind conditions of 10-15 knts.
We live on this part of the coast, mainland pacific mexico, for the surf.
It’s light and offshore in the morning, but by 2pm its gone onshore and by late afternoon it can build up to 17nkts, usually it’s 10-12knts.
The beach we sail off shelfs out slowly with breakers out to 300m. On average there are a 3 sections of steep breakers you have to get through running 4-6’. When the surf is up, the breakers are running 6-10’ with deep water 400’m out.
