In Switzerland too big cats gain more favour the last two years. With the fleet of Decision 35 and the new M2 (27-28feets) we have on the Leman Lake interesting regatta.
For information, Ventilo (
www.ventilo.ch) is building M2 for about USD 100'000.- with is not so much knowing that you need to be in three minimum or sometimes 4, it represent a cost per person of USD 25'000.- Really reasonable compared to our 18/20 feet.
Many people that were sailing in 20' went in the M2.
Interesting and nice to see... but on the other hands... when they have just one or two hours to kill and re allone they do not go sailing, which we do with smaller cats.
