Wouter:

If you can't home-build a competitive A cat, how close can you come?

I think the prices mentioned in this thread (for manufactured boats)are very reasonable for what you get, but have neither the sailing skill or motivation to warrant the expense. Still, I'd like a light agile boat and have the skill to build it in wood, given a decent set of plans.

So! What say you! How much would such a boat weigh, how high would it point, and how much would it cost?
