4 U Katy? it's Local and a blast
I've seen them in the SF bay... unbelievable... sound like a
jet engine. Saw them going 40 kts at least. You need a helmet and faceplate to protect your face from the spray. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Joe" wrote in message om... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tego ry=63730 Joe |

I've seen a few of these things for sale around $4000.
They do have a tendency to blow apart under the loads they see. Make sure you have insurance if you buy one, so you can replace the mast. Joe wrote http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...item=248488025 8&category=63730 |

When I saw them sailing, I heard that the connection between
the two sails is the first to go. That actually happened on one of the boats when I was there. It still sailed twice as fast as my little trimaran! -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Bart Senior" wrote in message ... I've seen a few of these things for sale around $4000.
