Where I sail most, Aurora Reservoir near Denver, the dry storage lot is predominately catamarans. There may be three to four dozen. Most look badly neglected. The most I have seen out on a nice weekend day is about six. According to the local Hobie Fleet Commodore, I have the first Tiger in Colorado. I bought it used and plan to continue to sail recreationally. Racing in this region generally involves long drives and camping, neither of which I find appealing. I'll try to make it to a few fleet events and share the fun a bit.
On most of the reservoirs in the area, which tend to be rather small, it's a constant battle with powerboaters and jet skiers who create a formidable chop. Aurora Res does not allow powerboats, which makes sailing there a pleasure. From what I've been reading on this forum over the last couple of years, the availability of decent venues for beach cats is part of the problem. It's not just about the boat, it's about the overall experience, and convenient access to a pleasant body of water seems to be becoming more difficult.
