Has anyone put this on a getaway? I wonder if the front cross bar would take the extra load, any thoughts.

see it at www.catsailor.com/Hooter.html

We make a spinnaker kit for the Getaway. It doesn't furl, you snuff it into a bag on the forward tramp.

I think that article was written about 10 years ago. Things have changed a bit.

I installed Surf City Catamarans spinnaker.
It gives a pretty wild ride when the wind starts blowing above 8/10 knots !
Lots of fun!

My understanding of a Hooter, is that you can use it even going upwind. Not sure how that would work, and I haven't seen any available for the getaway.
