Craig-

Actually, I went up a size from what your site would have recommended for my boat.

It had recommended a 10 kg Rocna, for a 30' long boat up to 5 tons. My boat is 28' and considerably less than 5 tons, but I went with the 15 kg Rocna, which you recommend for boats up to 9 tons in displacement. My boat only displaces about two-and-half tons, but I felt that due to the extra windage present by a trimaran, going up a size would be prudent.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
