Reply to: what cat for a 260lb middle aged sailor

[quote=vintagemilano]Hi there, I'm kinda in the same boat as you.... I have two daughters 9 and 11, the four of us go sailing on our SuperCat 17 with no troubles. Some things that I like about the SC 17 now that I've had it for a while are that it's boardless and boomless, it doesn't have any poles or ropes holding the tramp up, just one big unobstructed tramp. The tops of the hulls are rounded which makes it nice on the kids when they are out on the wire. I've enjoyed the support from Aquarius Sail, the manufacturer. Seems to point well but this is the only Cat I've had. Some cautions about the SC17 would be, when you are going fast enough to be flying a hull you really have to be on top of your fore/aft weight distribution. Having said all that if I knew then what I know now I would have also looked at a Nacra 5.7 or 570 but I am very happy with my SC17 for all that I've asked of it. [/quote]
