After having sent an email request to Performance Cat, I have gotten no reply. The Performance Cat site in US has bare bones on specs with an email link if you want more information, which is what I did.

The Europe site I was not aware of, so thanks for that link.

The 460 IS a solo boat, but for an owner who wants to take a crew of, say, three of the I-want-to-sail-but-do-we-have-get-wet type, will it sail with enough vigor or just float in the water like a overloaded raft?

The 500 will more closely fit that bill, but it appears to be more boat than a solo sailor who gets to escape from work only half a day or once a weekend a month would want?

Arrrrgh.

Tramp size, sail size, hulls with right flotation capacity? I realize neither are a racing machines!
