catamaran specifications

I have been reading these forums for quite awhile but this is my first post. Took me awhile to get this far, discovered that I could not access posting to the forum with Netscape but only Internet Explorer -- go figure. My question is does anyone know where to find a general listing of catamaran specs. I found http://old.cruisingworld.com/ssbk/ssbolndx.htm which is good as far as it goes but doesn't give mast heights and other good stuff. I noticed in another post about a Nacra 450 purchase that someone quoted a Texel page and misquoted there the luff length as being the mast height. I would like better info than that if I could find a place to look it up.

It has been quite informative reading the forum and I am happy to join in.

I am not sure if all the info can be found in one place. You could get the Multihull Table from the US Sailing site and then begin to visit each manufacturers website. Then you could assemble the information..... and then create a website...and then all the information would be in one place. Or, we could all start posting the pertinent info for each boat....

There is a page, with quite a lot. (not BOA) for a lot fo beachcats.
www.schrs.com

And another with BOA.

hello,
A data base from a pool of the forum members would be interesting. i'll contribute.

i use mozilla which is the basis of nescape to view this forum. perhaps you version of netscape is outdated.

I'll go first, my old boat first, and then the possible future boats.
