Hansonfamily4 Posted March 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2005 Originally posted by Emmessee: Clint.....? Have you got yourself a boat yet? Yep sure did, I ended up getting a Nacra 5.8 and it is just great. Been out several times now and have had no problems except raising and lowering the mast is a struggle. We went out yesterday with the whole family to watch the start of the Brisbane to Gladstone and had a lovely time. Really I don't think I would like to be out with a boat much smaller, especially when the swells reach 1 metre. If you see a boat called CLAWS that's it. Some of the guys in this forum probably think I'm mad getting a 5.8 as my first boat, but if you know your limits it's not a problem. Regards Clint.

Emmessee Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 I don't think you are mad at all. I had never sailed a catamaran at all except in Fiji on a little crap thing, and I got a 5.8 and came third in the state titles a year later. Good on you.
