Overhaulin the Playcat….

16 feets are the right size for allround recretional boats that can last the complete sailor cycle, as you can upgrade from main alone to complete Spi package. This is the range of boats I’m building now, a daggerless RC16, which are perfect for youths & kids too. The Playcat if I remember well was designed by Pete Melvin.

Sent by Dave Antognini  www.nacra.ca — “The Playcat which is a boat I am building was first commissioned by Peter Johnstone from Gunboat and later Nacra Europe built it for a year. I then did a complete overhaul including new rudders, new mast, sails, jib kit, spin kit and internal changes to the hulls”

    Cool! Reminds me of my old Nacra 5.0. You stick the lee bow way in the water.

    What is the minimum crew weight. Thinking of buying for my kids (65 pounds each). Not sure they are heavy enough to right the catamaran…
