Here is my concern, If I went for the Getaway that I would be dispointed in the performance in higher winds 25-30m, as compared to a nacra 570 or hobie fx one. keep in mind I have not sailed a cat before, so this is kind of new to me. The reason for chosing the getaway is, for the family. Two girls 8 and 10, I would like to teach them to sail, and in light breezes this would be a blast, I think. Another question on the boomless sails, do they hinder the crafts performance? any thoughts? thanks again.
