Hello everybody! After three years of owning a 21SC (enjoyed it lot, took it to Baja) I bought a 2011 Getaway and I'm thrilled. It's a fantastic design, everything is simpler and lighter, the fun factor is the same or more, and friends who sailed it have asked me if it's faster than the 21. I know it can't be, but it feels faster. (May be the go-kart thing, smaller seems faster.)
I don't have any experience racing catamarans, so I would like to ask if someone can tell me how, in say 10 knots, they carry the traveler, and if anybody has a pic of how the main should look, that'll be great.
One thing that surprised me is that's easier to tack than the 21, without the complication of centerboards.
Thanks!
