Reply to: Super Cat 17 vs. Prindle 18

[quote=MN3]Supercat Pros: fun, fast - no boom, no boards (although the 19 and bigger have them) good hull design side stay adjusters extend for easier righting /can be done single handed-no bag with good technique (i have solo righted one), has customer support and parts available (no spreaders in neither a pro nor a con in my opinion) Cons: very heavy mast (needs 2 people or a jin pole), less deck area than an 8 or 8.5 wide boat, and VERY VERY WET RIDE in big air P18 Pros: fun, fast , no boards, lots of spare parts around, more deck area than Supercat, much dryer boat Cons:no company support avail I also would recommend a furling jib on any cat that is used with kids/family for the sole reason of being able to reduce sail area / power in a pop up storm. YMMV If you like your current boat, put a furler on it and teach your crew how to avoid the jib gear (or position your blocks outhauled). It's nothing that 90% other cat owner deals with. PS rudders are a PITA on almost every boat<!-- editby --><em>Edited by MN3 on May 23, 2017 - 10:32 AM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
