Steve, I have enjoyed many of your posts and am charmed by the pictures of your beautiful Atlantic City 24. I would be most interested in reading Chapters 12-13 of the HA Calahan book about sail trim. I am a long time sailer but the Picnic Cat is my first cat boat. I am still in the learning process but enjoy the simplicity of the rig. In my opinion the boat moves well and points good enough for me. Simple and stable, what more could I want. But if I could improve my sailing techniques for the gaff rig that would be great. If you would be kind enough to email me the information I would be most appreciative.
