Add my other trimarans, catamarans, monohulls, kayaks and windsurfers -
and I needed a central location to dock my virtual flotilla.

With
the exception of my Windrider trimarans, my webpages and their
accompanying owner associations were created for the popular, but
out-of-production, watercraft I own: Luger, Wingsailer, Trac and
XS Speed. Their links will direct you to websites I
created/published to encourage an exchange of information among my
fellow owners. In addition to these "orphaned" boats, I
also have several Hobies (H-14s, Wave and a Float Cat), AquaCat, Laser,
Sea Skimmer Snark, Bay Runner, CraigCat, and three sit-on-top
kayaks. I also have four windsurfers: two Windgliders, a
catamaran-style XS Speed, and an original WindsurferŽ. I've
even started R/C sailing! ...Please, somebody stop me!

The Wingsailer - www.wingsailer.com
My
website was created to find and assist other owners of these splendid
sailing contraptions, and to sponsor an exchange of information about
this unique sailing craft which employs a wingfoil instead of
conventional sails. Information relayed by the designer is
provided, as well as specifications and a guide to wingfoil
aero-dynamics, a photo gallery, and an opportunity to join our Owners
Association.

Trac Catamarans - www.TracCat.com
Brought
from Australia, AMF licensed these catamarans for production in this
country from '79 thru '86. Their unique feature of semi-folding
hulls made the 14' model popular for van-top hauling. AMF dropped
their boat division, but the Trac-14 is still manufactured in Australia
under the Windrush name.

The XS Speed - A catamaran-style windsurfer
Being
a fan of multi-hulls, I was drawn to the catamaran-styling of this
sailboard. The company is out of business, and the XS Speed is no
longer in production, but that didn't stop me from bringing one
home. My website hopes to attract other owners for an ex-change
of tips, parts, and information. Basic descriptions and
specifications are listed.

The Rocky Gap Hobie Fleet
Our
"fleet" is comprised of only seven Hobies - But since our home port is
a small lake, the size is just right. The fleet's objective is to
encourage camaraderie between multi-hull owners in the area, but all
sailboats are welcome. The Rocky Gap Hobie Fleet is located on
Lake Habeeb, within Maryland's Rocky Gap State Park.
