Last time I sailed was 7 October. I cam only sail on weekends. Spring has died in the 4rse.

I think I am going to buy a catamaran.

Last time I (really) sailed was the 5th. October sucks.

I've been watching the cats, they fly in a light breeze.
There's also a guy on the Broadwater here on the Cold Toast that has one of those blade moths. Also flies in a light breeze.

I'm slightly envious.

Yeah, a cat for sub 15 kt days is what I'm thinking. Sunday would have been awesome for cat sailing even while it was just a knot or two too light for windsurfing.

Hmm Gestalt keeps pushing the point too, and it's a good one.

My next quiver:

1x Freestyle Wave, circa 105litres
1x 140litre something formularish and prob one of those NP Heliums (I can $till use a 460 mast etc)

Edit: Actually wind has been pretty good today, NE 15-20

I often pray for a harsh mistress [}:)]
