Crantz's big break
 
Dagger boards work well with practice..
I always marvel how the catamarans drive up on the sand
of the beaches at Waikiki.. the final pull with a
single block and rope.. and the hull is safely beached.
The reverse procedure.. takes the hull off the sand..
and the boat is floated.. the engines started.. and the
hull
moves away from shore.. within seconds the daggerboards are
dropped and the sails hoisted.
THat is seamanship extraordinaire.
