YEEE-HAW!
The 'wild thing' video made my day... possibly my week. Thanks for the link!

Now, maybe for the US suburban home builder club, the Int'l A-Cat class
will consider a hard chine PU/melamine/Tyvek category? With Sched-80 PVC
crossbeams!

Gougeon brothers of West epoxy fame used to sell plans for a
tortured plywood A-cat. My brother built one back in the mid-80s.

those were plans by old Acat racer John Lindahl from Michigan. some guys
in the club here built one and rigged it to race in 18sq.meter class.
fastest boat in the club. torturing plywood sure is fun!
