That product is the Catalina sailing boat as explained by it's "technical" advisor CruisingDad. The Catalina company, with the invaluable input of the simple-minded CruisingDad, has simplified the practise of sailing to it's logical reductio ad absurdum. Thus the average Catalina fulfills all of it's simple owner's needs by simply not sailing. It's great proponent, CruisingDad, answers simple questions by simply not answering them. Catalina-the simple sailor's boat, built by the simple-for the simple-supported by the simple. Catalina, with the simple help of CruisingDad, has refuted the great Abraham Lincoln, who said, "things should be kept as simple as possible, but no simpler".

CruisingDad can be found on the sailnet website for those Catalina owners desiring to simplify their boats beyond simply not sailing; just send him a PM, or private message. Be warned; you may need to find one truly simple to decipher CruisingDad's simple reply.

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.

"Simpleton" is a three syllable word and, since we're trying to keep things as simple as possible for the Catalina-challenged, I really couldn't comment.
