I thought this was an excellent article, pity there wasn't a photo of a cat at speed which would have really sold it to readers.

What is the level of media coverage of US cat sailing?
Would you see any articles/images or TV/radio interviews on cat sailing, often,occasionally or rarely in US media?

IMHO ongoing debate on the downturn in cat sailing can be put to a lack of detailed knowledge of what each media, radio, TV and print requires, hampered by usually limited PR staffing to get event information out to them.

Congratulations to all cat classes with websites, but how many of your administrators relay their info directly to local media and chase reporters to get coverage?

Its not easy doing both if you are an unpaid-amateur but if classes want to boost numbers they have to get more focused on enlisting members and stage events where the public can get up close and personal to the action.
