Although, it's not a big feat. It's like a Corvette passing a Yaris.

another fun sailing video, though not Hobies. They are Spitfire catamarans from GB http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRhmtHYE6dY&playnext=1&list=PL6DB7C206CAB43721 8)

To sail on one of those big cats/tris at full speed is a personal dream of mine. Awesome video. I guess my H18 would get gobbled up by one of those big boys. I kept thinking of PacMan with a windsurfer getting eaten by a big boat.

I dig any kind of sailing but all my fellow cat sailors love passing big mono hulls in the gulf. Once they see one they chase it like a dog chasing a car they will always say lets blow by that monoslug! LOl!!
