I'm very excited to announce that just in time for Christmas you'll be able to order all five of Rick's catamaran sailing videos on one interactive DVD. Titles include:
1. Total Boat Handling 2. Upwind Sailing 3. Great Starts & Finishes 4. Great Mark Roundings 5. Downind Sailing
Look for more details, including a precise availability date and price within the next few days. This is very exciting for us to be able to make this release. Look at the attached jpeg for a picture of what the DVD will look like.
Sail fast,

Does he have one for big cat sailing? I know a lot will pertain to both but the part where he suggests trapping out to keep the boat flat will probably not work on my Stiletto 27 <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Rick White does not suggest, he commands. If you don't do what he says quickly, his army of water ninjas will mercilessly kill you and your pets, houseplants included.

I have an environmental equalizer on the media room sound system that, when set properly, will kill all of my wife's houseplants and causes our Catahoula Leopard Dog to spin in circles.

There is so little difference in small boats and bigger boats. Sure, while you cannot trap, the balance attitude of the boat is the same -- forward and leeward in light air, aft and outboard as far as possible in heavy air.., and everywhere in between.
When I teach my seminars to big boats, it is almost identical (well, except for being sure to always have your jib sheet winch loaded with the lazy sheet at all times, etc.) There is also some excellent footage of Cheekee Monkey doing a spinnaker takedown and jibing from starboard to port all at the same time at the leeward mark.
Son Dave is working on it as we speak.., er, type. Should be there by tonight or Tuesday AM. Also offering a special close out sale on all five VHS tapes while they last. Rick
Yes.., they have been out for around 4 years now in VHS and PAL version of VHS. We have now compacted them into a DVD. They include: Total Boat Handling Upwind Sailing and the Cat Rolltack Downwind Sailing (including spinnaker and Hooters) Great Starts and Finishes Great Mark Roundings.
