Its funny you should ask that. I was originally looking at HR, Malo, Najad etc monohulls and then went for a cat instead. I know several other people who went along the same lines of thought, and all ended up with the same cat manufacturer: Broadblue. Several people have actually said to me 'if HR etc made a cat, it would be similar to a Broadblue'.

I think the philosophies are similar: first take a seaworthy design that will take anything thown at it. The look at fitting out with the highest standard of woodwork etc. Then look at getting the best performance. Dont sqeeze every bit of space into the hull(s) to make them 'over inflated'

(personally I'd prefer a Malo or Najad to a HR, but that is a different story)
