Thanks Rick,

That is what I have been experiencing. New to cat sailing, and I know that I have a lot to learn, but I could not get my old 5.2 to point as well as my buddy on his old Hobie 17.

Any recommendations on those light air days? How to get the old 5.2 into the wind a little closer? If it is really blowing, no problem with the extra distance traveled. I can make it to the marks fine.

I do have your "Catamaran Racing: For the 90s" and it has got me this far. It has been my text book.

Terry
