I think the target group already have boats of their own. From what I can tell, some of them have some pretty good equipment. Better than I do, that's for sure. Of course I race two bananas with a 4-poster bed at times, and love it.

This effort should focus on cat sailors who already have basic cat skills. This is a totally different project than trying to get non-sailors into sailboats or catamarans.

Buying boats implies a cash reserve, storage and maintenance issues, and ultimately a disposal problem.

Pick a time and place and I will be there Jake, if I am not on a trip.
