Just to let you guys know I've finally got the Inter 20 out on the water!! HOORAY! My usual crew, son and myself took her out for a good blast on Wednesday eve. on our sail club race night. Didn't race, and had a brilliant time, (touching Force 4 to start, then eased a little).
A few comparrisons to the Prindle
1. The Inter 20 tacks like a dream
2. The Inter 20 just rides over or drives through the chop
3. She is fast!!

Next learning process will be putting the kite up - dont worry first time will be in a wind Force 2-3.

For Inter 20 rigging and sailing tips check out www.1design.net and click on the Catamaran Forums link at the top, then the Catamaran Resources link about 4 forums down. Lots of good info there. It's not a beast as long as you know how to depower it.

I'm assuming you're comparing your boat to a P19. I've never sailed an I20. It has a fine pedigree. However, in 11 racing seasons I have yet to experience problems with rough water, quick tacks or lack of speed on a P19-especially with the MX sails. If your previous boat was a P16 I understand where you're coming from.
