Great idea on the Mast float ; I can do that !!!
a mercury contact switch made from a Long glass tube
with contacts ON Top. When it tips over, the liquid metal
will short the contacts & blow the CO2 bottle.

Edit :
UAH -- gonna need a way to dis-arm that thing, or
lowering the Mast might be a problem !!

SO i weigh the mast and figure the Volume i'll need
with 1 hull a few feet from the fulcrum point ? ...

Guss Ya figured i know a bit about Mono's ; but don't
Know Squat about Cats ??

Got a contact # for Randy Smyth ?

Yes i'll be solo a Lot, & the wind blows at Mohave
in the afternoon when Kite boarding is finished, because it
turned off-shore for us.
A :
Perfect time to go sail.
