However, catamarans are extremely stable in one position.  {;*))

In the same way I would want to make sure my keel stayed on my sailboat, my
escape hatches were watertight and strong in my catamaran, I'd want to make
sure my track stabilizers keep working on my big fat Nordhavn.  I love the
sound of that "big fat Nordhavn".  If I ever rename that boat I think I've
got an alternative  :)  Happy trails to all!  Scott
