[quote=Wolfman]Yeah, the one downside with Cats is that they are a little slow downwind (at least compared with reaching performance). Tripling your sail area with an assymetrical spin makes up for that in a huge way. Code 0's or hooters, like on the H14s above were pretty popular when the spin rigs were less well developed. Now they have fallen a little out of favor but because you can't go as far downwind with them. They are still viable and tend to be a slightly simpler setup once everything is put together (less rigging to deal with on the tramp).[/quote]
