hello,
2 questions. what school do you go to and will we get to read this paper? We have been hearing about it for months now.

i sail a modified hobie 18sx because it was free to bring home(but $3000 to fix up), and because they are good in the ocean in strong wind. also cats are an excellent prop for meeting women. there are many guys here with all the props but very few with a cat. now i don't need to meet women because i'm married though. my wife used to go out in the big stuff with me at first, but now that she has sailed the protected, and whale populated west side with me, she doesn't like sailing the big stuff so much. Granted the channel between Kapalua and Molokai is plenty rough most days, but i would want a new mast and rigging to ply those waters. Preferably one that is smaller than normal.
