Hi John, give Pat hugs and hello from Jay and tami...
You know we have 18 Squares, and would sure love to see you get one. So would Andrew Tatton. It'll sure be a good boat for your weight. You can duke it out with Tatton, and when here, you can duke it with us...
But why is the Acat out? I thought there was a fella there Houston way who was something over 6 ft and 250lb racing an A, aw, what was his name... anyway, you can choose a rig that will complement your size.... talk to Ogletree...
Like I say, I'd sure love to see you get a Square.
Square data from a two-Square owner:
18 Square refers to sail area, which is something like 194 sq ft, eg 18 Square Meters.
Max hull length is 18 ft/5.5metres. No max beam. If your boat allup weight is less than 330lb, you're Category I. 330 or more, you're Cat II. And that's just about it for class rules, the 18 Square is a development class. Y'all might remember WILD TURKEY, the solid-wing 18 Square...
There is a webpage for the 18 Square
http://www.geocities.com/mec_coleman/18square.htmClass rules, data, pix, all there.
Sometimes it's fun to play with yourself. Fly 18sq.
