Since my wife is small, sheet-loads came up in this discussion regarding the F18 and being OK for a small-framed crew, but in another topic I started about trailering Tornado's it was suggested that F18 sheet-loads might be too high for such; I'd ask everyone with a basis for comparison to chime in (especially any female sailors). How high are F18 sheet-loads, relatively speaking (other performance boats too)?

Without ever having sailed a cat, applying a bit of common sense suggests that the more performance a boat possesses translates to higher sheet-loads...the question becomes how much higher? Looking at Joanna's comments...it seems the H20 isn't too much load, so how much more load does the F18 generate?
