Why not "stand out from the crowd" of personal interest "barrow pushers" and say stuff them all, and get a "C" class cat, then none of them can give you "advice", they will look at your cat and just mumble AAAAAH, MMMmm, well yes, and the number of invitations to "high class" sailing venues, dinners, etc, that you will receive will go up one thousand fold. Go for a "C" class and never look back, (cause that’s the place where all the rest of the fleet will be) And a really good part of owning a "C", is that you never really have to put it in the water, just rigging it on the beach is enough to gain respect, wonder and awe from sailors, When you go to a sailing, off water, function, and some one says " what do you sail"? And you reply, "Oh I just own a "C" class cat"! Watch the hush come over the room, and feel the warmth as every sailor’s eyes elevate your importance to a higher level. You can bask in that “glow” for the rest of your life.
