I like Hobies, so a bigger cat probably would be fun. I just don't know
anything about that and what models would make a good, solid built boat that
can handle some rougher seas, eventually.
Gemini?
Maine cats?
The Leopards, Manta's, etc... are all too expensive for my wallet.

Actually, my cat (the feline version) does the wrecking of my equipment just
fine :)
Thanks for all the feedback on and off list. It's all food for thought :)
