There's just something about a perfect wind on a sunney day alone in your Catalina 25. Nervana

I have mentioned in other threads that I had a custom 135 made, here you can see that it is full hoist and has a low clew, I wanted as much sail area as possible with a minimum overlap. I am pleased with how it sets. This was actually a very squirlly day with huge oscillations in wind speed (5-15) and direction (sw-n). I am only doing about 4.5 knots here, I prefer the early stages of whitecaps with full sail. If this wind had been steady it would have been ok.
