I am trying to show some pilot/aero engineering co-workers the developments in catamarans (they only seem to know of the Hobie 16 when it comes to cats) over the past several years. I am specifially looking for two pictures that I have seen posted here but now I cannot find them. One is of Ben Hall's Wing Sail and the other is of the foiling C cat, sailing up on the foils.

If anyone can point me to those threads/pictures I would be most thankful. I have tried the "search" function above with no results.

Thanks in advance, Tim.

Wow, you guys are fast! Thanks a bunch!

Now maybe I can get some of them excited enough to come out and sail cats! (I've invited one to design some winglet battens as in another thread).

Andi, are you going to get a ride on that thing? He's in your neighborhood, right?

It might be worth the drive or train ride down there if you could get on board. Who drives it and is it for that Bol d'Ore regatta?
