[quote=pknapp66][quote]As a relative newbie, w/ a place to keep my boat mast-up on the beach, I have to admit I'm presently averse to having to load my boat on a trailer and re-rig up at another location. Maybe if I get more practiced it would seem like less of a deal(?). Being able to sail back to back weekends, first the SOL, then fresh water on Lake Champlain, sounds like a major payoff for that work & travel though! I hope the schedule works out that way for 2019.[/quote]

It is easy to get lazy with mast up storage, That is one reason that we have more than one cat. Setting up for a day or two is a pain but at Champlain we go for a week so it is worth it. If you were to join us there would be plenty of help to setup, breakdown, and move your boat. Everyone usually pitches in when a boat arrives. That said we traveled over an hour each way for a one day 20 mile sail on Lake George several weeks back. All 4 boat crews agreed that it was well worth doing.

On a side note moving our 300 lb Tornado on wheels is pretty easy for 2 of us. Not so for the Nacra 6.0.
