Reply to: Hudson River- need a cat.

[quote=tominpa]The river there is about a mile wide, navigable to larger vessels and clean. I have never sailed there, but it should be a good recreational sailing waterway when the wind is good. Like many rivers, it could have times when wind is not adequate to safety navigate currents and other vessels without auxiliary power. The bridges nearby have plenty of clearance. There a lots of differences between the N-5.7 and a FX1, and neither boat is widely available. The Nacra would be more stable and easier to sail, with good speed when the wind allows. There is one on the Classified in Wisconsin that is well-priced. I think a lot of different cats would be suitable for the river, but the 5.7 is pretty hard to beat for ease of sailing and going on and off a beach. Of course I'm completely unbiased in that opinion :)<!-- editby --><em>Edited by tominpa on Jan 09, 2025 - 05:55 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
