Thanks Jim. The Trimarans are amazing machines. If I had money, I'd prefer to own a Figaro II for single handing. They race them is tight triangle races, in Europe, singlehanded w full spinnakers. They also push them hard in 35 to 40 knot winds and seas offshore, but not much interior.

(Just kidding) I learned to sail on windsurfers in the early '80s and didn't get into "gentleman (drier) sailing" until the late 90's. I chuckle when the Sailing Anarchy crewbies disparage our leadmines. Planing? Been there, done that.
