I love boats...I had 13, not a lucky number so I was looking for the 14th ! My purchase of this little Cat ,after much hunting and deliberation, was one of the best I've ever made. Easy to sail by myself ( so beginners take note) and a nice size too. Its a fabulous little boat. I love it.

WTG Apolon! For a first entry sailboat this is AMAZING! All I have done since i got mine is sail sail sail! The HUD works great ,the boat is done in detail and sails with ease. I have been sailing in SL for 2 years or more and this is my favorite boat in my inventory now.

Practice Wind works super ! You can take your friends along and they can be your "crew" ! It hauls ass too! Get out of the way speed boats!!!

Very nicely done, great sailboat, even for a novice like me. Detail is awesome, with moving ropes, sails, and rudders. Quick too, and flying one hull is very fun. HUD works well, makes it a breeze to sail. Also includes boxed textures to use as templates for making your own.
