| Eric, I do know what you are talking about poundage wise and I plan on sailing myself silly just the way she is before making any significant changes... I've got an 8 hp Johnson 2 stroke right now and a 3 gal tank... if I go electric and I probably will it will be with a LiPo pack and an Etek, I have 4 motors to choose from, 3 brush and 1 brushless. I don't run around any more, don't drink or spend time chasing things that I know I don't want so I spend my money on the passions that I have, sailing and electric projects.. got to love what you're doing... This stiletto 26 is a conversion built by one of the engineers wanting to make a week long camping, beach-able cat with sleep aboard capabilities... The design never took off but the boat is solid and I like it, with a few astatic changes it could be a great looking boat, so far the performance is good but I haven't really pushed her. I am in the process of building a new boom because I picked up an F24 mainsail the other day and I need 12 Ft and only have 10 on the boom... should be fun with that roachie monster on board.. I also have a 20 meter sailkite that I want to try, have you ever seen one of these on a boat first hand? I've seen them on Utube, actually on a 24 tri in Hawaii.... Dave K Thanks for the welcome to the fast side of the tracks.. chuckle --- On Tue, 11/30/10, Eric <ewdysar@yahoo.com> wrote:
