My uncle gave me a 1982 supercat 17 for christmas, and i do not know much about sailing...im just getting into it. I was wondering if i could get some questions answered and I am also on the look-out for parts and such. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom Overton

Hi Tom,

Get this book: "Catamaran Racing: for the 90's" it contains quite a bit of info about boat handling and tuning and some interesting chapters by cat sailing icons. It really helped me learn how to handle my boat and not be so intimidated by some of the Catamaran's quirks.

Amazon has it here:
