[quote=klozhald]Wolfman is right on the nose.
Buy the cat that is in good condition, or a really good value if you feel you can repair it.
Both Prindle and NACRA were designed to be ocean racers, in direct response to the H16 failings in high waves and wind.
The hull designs are all about positive flotation and control in the water.
You can't go wrong with either.
I prefer Prindles, and race mine in 40 mile regattas offshore, but so what?
Find a cat with sound hulls, hardware that has not been thrashed, decent sails and a working trailer.
There are times I wish for the simplicity and fun of my old 16 foot cat.<!-- editby --><em>Edited by klozhald on Jan 27, 2014 - 04:20 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
