First, Welcome to TheBeachcats.com, glad you found our community.
Have you rigged the boat yet, raised the mast? You need to make sure you know how that all works and that you and your wife can handle it, with just two people it can be hard to raise and connect the mast on an 18 foot catamaran, and several ways you can hurt yourself or boat.
Make sure you understand how the mast sits on the beam. Masts on beachcats can rotate, so they have ways to temporarily connect to the mast step while being raised. I'm not familiar with how the Trac 18 works, maybe someone else here is.
Would be extremely helpful to have someone with you experienced in catamarans along for the maiden voyage, but if you can't find someone just make sure you fully understand the process and maybe do a dress rehearsal in your yard.
Ask anything that you don't understand as you go along here.[/quote]
