Default More racers who

Catamarans can and do heel, but only 5 or so degrees.

Scott,

You don't "Heel" a Cat, you fly a hull! You're right, it's a real kick
to lift a hull out off the water and take off like a "Bat out of
H-------"

Remember though, the sail is in between the hulls. When it isn't, you
have a recovery problem!

And; Jeff
When you "heel" and get a hot cup of coffee in your lap, its EVIL, when
you run out of rudder and round up, Evil. I've got a collection of great
Coffee Mugs without handles that were broken off in falls due to
"Heeling" Evil. I have many memories of peeing on my shoes in the head
from sudden "Heeling" Evil!!

You can call it what ever you want, I call it EVIL

Ole Thom
