    What boat should I keep

    I can only keep one boat but can't decide which one, I have a deep vee mono and a canamaran. I need to drive a few min. to any water and take my boat caming when I go, most the the time my luck has it that the water is not like glass. Would I be bettewr of keeping the mono?

        well I rob a lot of parts from the cat to help with the mono, most of the time I will be in a foot or two waves.

            I HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE MONO YET, I just like to take it to the cotage a lot and its always seems to be wavy when I go.

              Road, I started out with a couple monos and was impressed with the performance... however as soon as I got my miss geico I have fallen in love with the cat. I'm going to keep my mono and convert it to a retriever boat eventually but I don't think I'm going to get any more small monos... anything I purchase/build will be in the 36 inch range... I love my cat and thats the way I'm going to go. My next build is also going to be a cat.

              Stick with the catamaran

                between oval master and blackjack... i vote neither of these will do well in heavy chop.

                  Keep the blackjack. Its fiberglass and has more upgrade potential than the mono.

                      Do you think the brushless system form a shockwave 26 would be enough to move the oval master?

                          Cats will typically run on rougher water than monos. I'd keep the cat.

                            the mono is s slighty bigger boat also, the cat likes to sail in the wind a lot.

                              sounds like the cat needs some adjustment.
