Please split Multihull category into Cruising or Racing

I'm with Red Rueben on this one....of course it was a long coooold winter so I'm prospecting in Canada this summer. Last Christmas the only things in stockings I saw were the lumps of coal St. Nick left...( or did the last stockings wind up in the nick?

 

There's a job for all those sequestered Air Traffic Controllers in the US - they can do final approach traffic control on the mosquitos queuing up to lunch on Cav this summer in the PNW. Willing to bet the bugs are stacked up worse than Chicago O"Hare looking to stake a claim.

Did part of a summer once in Northern BC - have still not regained all the lost blood from les maudites maringouins. Some of them looked like Boeing products.

Tis true, the full grown ones can carry off an elk....Which is why I look for company the skeeters like better!

Whoops, I'm starting to understand those cold winters......

 

Catamaran's need separate categories.? 2018
Multi Hull's
Sail Cat
Motor Cat
Power Cat
Hybrids, Gas, Diesel, Solar / Electric ? ? ?.........
They are all different, in lots of ways !
And there's not much information (2018) out there ?
Every time I search for Catamaran info.,....
I find old info. or just sailcat's !

 

Nah, just keep it as it is ... but have a separate category for DoUglaS ... so those who want to ...,. can politely swerve away?

 

So, a cruising tri (or cat) that wanted to add semi lifting foils would be in which category?
B

 

I vote we split out the foiler content since on the same basis as above, foils apply to monos as well, and everyone would benefit from the opportunity of leafing through that content.

 

Another thought may be ; "ultra / corporate budget" vs. " average bloke / sensible budget"
First thoughts were - racing/foiling are basically the same thing, cos once you put a sink, aircon & a dishwasher on board - it ain't gunna foil or race.
But that would mean Gary's little working class man efforts would be lost amongst a world of carbon fibre & money.
I really appreciate the french for their "thinking outside the square" attitude. I enjoy reading about / watching (youtube) their efforts.
But I also appreciate the kiwis for the $1.40 back yard practical engineering. eg. " worlds fastest indian "
I suspect most of the folk on this forum are of the "average bloke/sensible budget types."
I could be wrong ?
