    Catamaran hull vs sport hydro ?

    Hi all do catamaran's have any advantages in handling and performance over the typical full bodied sport hydro hull ? Regards Andris Golts.

    Cats can turn both ways where hydros only turn one way well

      The more scale looking cats with a narrow beam generally don't turn very well.

        Usually a cat will handle rougher, windier conditions better than a hydro of the same size, also a bit more forgiving in the setup.
        If my boats upside down then who owns the one I thought I was driving the last two laps?
