tough being old and lazy,had my suncat 3 yrs still on my little lake in nh.as i watch dock in&dock out,i know why i love my suncat.word to he wise don't hit a rock with the centerboard 1/2 way down.broke my pendant line.i now run my engine every time i sail.helps when you really need the engine.internal gas tank is a plus.polishing by hand is torture,get a cheap sears orbital polisher.a bimini is nice,even up north.a suncat,bimini,diet pepsi,mp3 player with muddy&the wolf,a little wind ain't a bad way to spend a summer afternoon.oh ya,a crew is not wanted or needed.
