Mark and Karl, Thank you for your support.

Since the boat was in such great shape and cat sailing is all but dead on Long Island, I figured it would be a great single hand ride...Boat does not have the wings...they belong on tampons in my opinion...I'm looking for tuning info regarding rake, spreaders, tensions..etc...there is a one-page initial guide but that's all..I was hoping someone from Europe would see this and reply also...

Thus far, I've added 10:1 main blocks, spinnaker kit, self-tacking jib kit, carbon daggers, EPO rudders, new tramp, all new standing and running rigging including dyneema shrouds and staymasters, quick mast rotation release for downwind mode - same for boom....I would like to see some examples of a 16:1 downhaul if available however...

Just hoping for some data to jump start the curve...should be a good PHRF boat too..

Any input is greatly appreciated...

If anyone finds themselves on eastern Long Island...we have a small group of cats to race...always looking for more or just to crew...thanks!!
