TAll wingmast catamaran rig on a skiff?

thanks, i didn't think it was new, just wanted to know why, ( my design isn't suposto blow moths away, its suposto blow A cats away, (which has already been done on a regular moth) and make it so I don't haveto hike, I know alot of people who find this option appealing) and its not a supermoth its not huge. its .65m longer and has 2.5-3sqm more sail, if it wasn't for the no trapeze rule, I'd just build a moth.............I'm starting to think a more conventional rig would be better, like a smaller version of a Musto rig, hell maybe I'll just put a musto rig on it

 

It depends on how you define "blow A Cats away", I suppose. The foiler is an amazing performer with superb performance and I see that it has beaten As, but it's also been well beaten by As in other conditions.

Have you ever tried a Moth? Trapping off it would lift what is already one of the world's hardest boats to another level of difficulty.

 

no, but I took a run on a RS600ff when I was in Europe, and can only imagine what that boat would be like if it was skinny and wasn't so pigish, power to weight could do it a world of good i think, and a better rig would be awesome as well........I have moved this descusion to "4 meter monofoiler" thread under "sailboats" please continue there.............and by "blow them away" I mean keep up.....lol A cats are huge, my boat would be little, and only cost me half as much, so that would be good enough for me........

 

Errr, I think it's the third-narrowest singlehander for its length in the world, and about the third lightest too. Hardly piggish.

I can understand the cost factor.

 

yes, but it could be narrower and lighter, compared to a boat designed to be a foiler, its fairly wide and heavy, thats what I mean. As far as single handed skiffs go, its a great boat.
