From: Dave Kendall Subject: Buggy catamaran Date: Fri, 31 May 1996 00:07:04 -1000 Organization: Cripps Computing Centre, The University of Nottingham Message-ID: Has anyone got hold of one of the float attachments for the flexi buggy? I doubt whether I will ever do the same - but would like to hear from any kite surfers who could tell me a tale or two. How much do these things cost, and are they any good? Has anyone else designed alternative kite boats/floats? We want information . . .

He's using cats which already have a superior hull design. You'll have to do some additional redesign, but you'll have a fast craft.

I don't sell production boats, but design and build for fun. I'm looking for new projects...
