Just wondering if anyone has ever tried making a videos of cat sailing and sending it to the sports dept of each high school.

I know Hobie did a promotional video 20 yrs ago, as good as it was, in my opinion, that was not really tailored to what I see as the right age group. Ie. 10-16 yrs.



Below 10 and they are too young to handle a boat confidently by themselves , above 16 and they have a lot of other things on their minds.

So if you were going to make such a video it would have to be on boats they could handle by themselves both on and off the water, (which off the water would mean boats weighing 50kg or less unrigged and on the water would mean no more than 14 ft). And it would have to appear exciting.



Now if such a video could be produced you would need to include both old and young but the content could be tailored for the intended audience.

You could also make a video that you could send to the wood working depts detailing the construction of such a craft.



Just a thought. Any comments?
