Designed back in 1985 by the renowned Danish designer Lars Oudrup, this *micro-race-class* design sails faster than the wind and easily reaches over 20 knots. The My-Cat was convincing in all comparative races, e.g. round fyn race (140 miles) 1986, 87, 89 & 92. The slim hulls with U-frame are made of full laminate in the underwater sections and as a sandwich above the waterline. The mast beam is made of vinylesther full laminate, the fore and aft beams are made of aluminium mast profiles. The aft beam is equipped with a traveller across the entire width. With attached rudders and centreboards, the my-cat sails in a balanced manner and can be steered like a dinghy with two fingers. Thanks to the self-tacking jib, it can be turned easily and without any problems, allowing it to tack effectively even in narrow waters. The cat can be dismantled by 2 people and can therefore be trailered. A racer that is suitable for touring and which, thanks to its outstanding performance, makes it possible to achieve impressive distances. Excellent light wind characteristics. From 15 knots of wind it gets lively on board and the trampoline gets wet. The German owner is decided to give up sailing and is offering his my-cat in good condition for inspection and takeover, ready to be towed away on licensed road-trailer in Northern Germany.
