Hints About ocean sailboat

A catboat has a single mast mounted fairly forward and does not carry a head sail (jib etc.). Most modern designs have only one sail, the mainsail; however the traditional catboat could carry multiple sails from the gaff rig. The designer of the Catboat is Brian Husband, master sailor of the early 1940's.

Yamaha boats are much lighter than comparable stern drives. In some cases the weight difference can near 2,000 pounds, giving Yamaha boats an overwhelming power to weight advantage. Less drag in the water allows the engines to operate more effectively. Less weight also makes them easier and more efficient to tow behind a wider variety of vehicles.
