They are a dirty bunch of sleazy scummy people. I rate them lower than white whale **** on the bottom of the ocean under a spring tide. If you donate pick a good outfit like the Merchant Marine Academy. Thanks, Actually one of my favorite places is the Maritime Museum in St Michaels Md. This will probably take place sometime in 08. I have seen the Boat Angel signs on the hiway here. Mundo, The Captain who is a bully and an ass |

Boy Mundo,
That is one hell of a Main Sail. She looks great Close Hauled. I hope you can hold going downwind with that inboard rudder without to much Gibbing to keep it from rounding up. |

Sail is being built with 2 reefs. Never owned a "New" boat before. I will take this one to the grave. -- Mundo, The Captain who is a bully and an ass |

Catboats are a lot of fun to sail, and (imho) part of the fun is they really don't handle like plain-vanilla garden-variety run-of-the-mill mass-produced fin-keel marconi sloops. It's a whole different flavor! Never owned a "New" boat before. The one and only time I ever bought a brand-new boat, we had several issues. But Marshall has a great rep so it should be fine. I will take this one to the grave. Why commit too soon? You can have as many "last boats" as you want. Fresh Breezes- Doug King |

I am in the process of downsizing to a Marshall 18 open cockpit. http://www.marshallcat.com/images/M18open1.jpg.JPG Is that you? If so, which ugly mug is you? Great little boat. Lots of fun. Be sure to get at least 2 sets of reef points. Also, consider adding a block with a cam cleat (large! so the line runs freely) right over where that horn cleat is above the rudder. You don't have to use it, but it'll be there if you want it. |
