The catamarans involved were fairly small high-performance sailing
vessels, which would have been severely buffeted by the unexpected
squall.

Honestly, CA, If I didn't think that you were so stupid, I would think that
you were trolling!!

If that had been a fleet of Topper Buzz's or RS Vareo's then the result
would have been exactly the same.



The trampoline-like netting platform, which joins the hulls and
supports the crew, offers no protection against the sea or elements.

Neither does the trapeze on similiar high perfomance monohulls of the same
size.
