[quote=emmettv]Wolfman ,  Better hope the wife doesn't read this site or you'll find a mysterious hole in the boat come spring time.
My wife got bored of the 40 minute boat setup (40 more taking it down) on each outing so I'm also sailing with buddies. Upside is we can push the boat quite a bit harder .. 
Marekli, when I was trying to figure out the rigging of my boat (I bought it when stored ,so did not see it rigged) I went to visit a local catamaran club . Took a lot of photos of similar boat rigging. What i did notice is that they all had the same principal setup . P19 will have more adjustments for more tighter control of boat and sails. The Hobie would be of a more simplified setup. I'm sure there are more knowledgable members on the site ,but I can definately relate to your situation. For me half the fun is learning with these boats. I've had some amazing crashes ,but always got back on with a huge smile !! If you do pick it up, keep us posted . I'd love to here of your first few outings .[/quote]
