Now remove the caps on the front to reduce wind resistance.good ideas keep it coming!
Yes, I forgot that we have different audiences. I tend to look at issues from a racers perspective.I do that with my 40 yr old sail.... I might care when I get a new one.
When I bought my first catamaran, I took it to Key Biscayne event (Miami), and found other Hobies on the beach using fine sand paper on their hull bottoms. That was in 1972!Actually leaving the hull "scuff sanded" to slightly dull with fine paper (appx 280 grit) helps.
1. instead of wrapping the sails around the spars, roll the sail up by itself to the spars. then use a chain sinnet knot with both your halyard line and mainsheet to wrap around the sail and spar combination.I would like suggestions for a better way to travel?

If you get two more 4-foot PVC tubes, they can be slip-fitted fore and aft to accommodate the wrapped sails. You'd still have to cut a slot for the gooseneck, but the gooseneck could be fitted to face downwards—away from weather—and secured at the rearmost (new) pipe section. Or don't cut a slot, and slip a heavy canvas bag over the gooseneck end at the front end, then slip the new rear PVC section onto the rear section.I had considered making one longer and doing that but I didn't want to mess with the Goose Neck or cut a slot to accommodate it.
