Hi Ron,
I would recommend coming out to one of the events to talk to the guys and going for a few test sails before you buy a boat. There are lots of options available. The local regatta calendar can be found at:
http://www.nacra.ca/2008-orca-schedule.pdfThere is a training event in Guelph on May 10-11 but the first big event of the year is in Burlington on May 24-25. Send me an email if you want more info:

This is what I had in mind but didn't know how to get in touch with people. Thanks for the info.
I know from my many years being involved in motorcycle racing that people there are all to happy to invite newbies into the sport and share information. Certainly looks like it is the same in this fraternity of cat sailors.
