Hey guy's whats all this stuff about body weight being a problem .

Thats one of the things we need to promote about Cat Rig Mossies, they are competitive with a large variety of body weights certainly from 70kg to under 100kg (in the last 10 years National Titles have been won by sailors at either end of this weight range) and there are some examples of weights outside of that range being competitive as well. This is something we should be promoting as a positive for the class .

And while we are at it, its not that far back in Mossie history (2002) that a "old" 78kg timber Mossie sail number 1111, won the Sloop Rig Vic title, ahead of minimum weight boats .

Just get out there and sail what you have, as often as you can and have fun, others will follow .

Many classes would be jealous of our 26 Cat Rigs at the Nats this year and where jealous of our 20 plus Mossies at the Sauna Sail 4 years ago .

To quote a great "Old timber" but still racing at the front Mossie boat name, Just Do It!
