Capabilities of a Catalina 27
Sailed the cat 27 (1979) yesterday in the SF bay. The winds were light, but started to pick up in the early afternoon.
I noticed it pulled to weather a lot. It was difficult not difficult to sail, but seemed like a lot of work to keep her on course. Is this a typical feature of this make? I beleive the term is weather helm, but I am not sure.
I think I would be looking for something that held true a little easier? I have sailed a couple other (albeit smaller 22-24) and this didn''t seem to be the case.
Any thoughts?
