Matty 0 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 not too far away now and I would like to see how my slightly modified Papertiger goes against other beach cats. where are you all sailing? Link to post Share on other sites
Variant 2 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 There must be a lot of beach cats gathering dust (or leaves) on the North Shore. I don't know of much sailing going on other than Takapuna Hobies. I usually take my Maricat down to Castor Bay for a sail. But you probably want something faster to line up against.

Matty 0 Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 I would like to line up against anything with more than one hull. standard pt would be interesting... Link to post Share on other sites
Variant 2 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I was planning on going for a sail this weekend. I wonder how many other random cats we could gather. Link to post Share on other sites
Matty 0 Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 It is only half painted at the moment so I won't be ready but it would be awesome to get a few different designs and see how they go against eachother. cougar cat hobie pt maricat wild cat tiger sharks tornado nacra prindle a class or own designs. is there any regatta run by a club that has done this?

Clive 13 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 where are you all sailing? Hey Matty, It's a bit sparse... Did the 4 corners race a few years ago and the Hobies used to get together on a Sunday... Kai Iwi lakes guys have quite a few PT's but it's a bit of a trek... The A's have gone home for the winter it would seem... We'll have to organise our own events... Link to post Share on other sites
