I have sailed cats in the UK for 20 years now and from time to time get similar frustration with the lack of exposure that cat sailing gets at the expense of mono-thingies. I have found the cure! Take a trip to the Northsea coast of Holland. every costal town has a beach club and all of these have over 100 cats of all shapes and sizes that are just there for recreational sailing. They have lots of serious racers too but most of them live on trailers and travel around all the time. All this with hardly a mono in sight!. If you ever get the chance, go to the Round Texel race. If these beach club racers only do one away event a year it is this one. Add these guys to the full time racers and you get 800 cats all launching at once. Trully a big shot in the arm for any cat fan Keep the faith
