Crab's invasion everywhere, hm ?! Seems to become a very crabby Saturday :-)

As I am very newly in both forums, I didnt know about Crabman's postings there, yet. But I did some postings in this tread, already. I think, it was started by Gary Baigent whom I know. Very profoundly knowledge about multihulls, this guy... and a keen boat builder
