Perfect! All very sensible words. You must be a great sailor.
Fair winds to you and your beautiful boat!

If they would have put a fender on the aft pontoon and exchanged a crew member without him grabbing anything on the boat - now that would have been truly special. It was right there. And by God, don't put a life jacket on to do it, you only live twice.

Ah yes we did change crew and we are Australian

FYI, when the water line of the spray up the front of the leeward bow reaches the hull/deck flange that’s about 9 knots boat speed in flat water.

Regarding getting close together when side by side, I guess cats don’t get sucked together as strongly as monohulls do?

We are hitting 11 knots in the video Ray on the bow and me at the helm Other cat Gamba on helm and taking video Cristina
