I am looking at the various cat classes with the hope of racing with my daughter. I have sailed finns in international competition and raced cats in my youth. I think if I work hard I can get down to 225lbs. My daughter is a strong 6'0" and weighs about 165 lbs. I think as a team we will weigh in at 400lbs. I want to sail in the most popular class possible that will allow us to be competitive. I would also want a starter boat in the class that is less exotic and will take some punishment. Any suggestions on a class and a specific type of boat? I do want to race a class of boat that utilizes full sails. I live in Oregon which is a 5 hour drive to San Francisco. I can also race in LA and Seattle. Any help in choosing a class and a starter boat would be appreciated.
