OK Tim you read it. I warned you . . . .

I'm trying to get the non spin guy a taste of what it's like. I look at my nice sweet Hobie 16 on the Dock and say, Hmmm, no spin why bother?
All your fault, you sold me my first SpinCat.
Sailing's never been the same since.
We were out New years Eve Race, blowing 15+, with some hardline gusts. Had Dave Mosley's new GF crewing , Dave is trying to polish Allan B's technique/rhythm for the Tradewinds. Girl was fearless, gotta give her credit. Flew a hull downwind for about 3 miles on a kite run, Laying it over hard, washing the tops of the daggers in the puffs, trying to turn down when most of the boards are out of the water, praying for the wind to back off just enough for control and a little rudder bite.
They don't make an adventure ride at Disney that compares, everything rests on you and a little luck.
Absolutely fabulous!
We did a 25 mile loop on the lake, I shortcutted one island, my crew was cold and wet and I looked up at Kirsten & Bill Croughwell laid over flat as the wind compressed over the next island, then they were swimming, and decided I'd had enough fun, took a new excited catsailer back to the dock. Girl turned to us and asked if it was always like this?
We wish!
SpinCat, that's me. Where the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death, and all at a very misleading 22 knots.
