Title: Joysway Binary Catamaran
Post by: inertia on April 06, 2016, 05:20:19 pm

I know the square root of Fanny Adams about what my dear lady wife calls "boats with sticky-up things" (she likes powerboats) but Howes are offering this little job for less than £60, with a radio included. Does anyone out there have one? Are they any good? We sail on a relatively small and sheltered water.

It's tiny, but looks like lots of fun providing the winds aren't strong.

Chap in our Club bought one recently but hasn't  sailed it yet.My first impression was that it is very small and weak to be honest but would sail in a sparrow's - I believe,one gust though and it might turn over.I think there is a YT clip of it,and i did think of one myself,but.....mmmm....not sure...
