For those needing a sailing fix, see these [url="http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=catalina+250&search_type=&aq=f"]C250 sailing videos[/url].

The videos from the boat in Chile. He has a nice set up on his C250. I like his radar arch and moving the backstay out of the cockpit. I know gives it the Hun*@# look, but very functional. I think there is a retractable bowsprit in one of the videos.

I guess I am having a slow Saturday morning.

I'm liking that arch too. Great solution to walking into the backstay. Any guess as to what that would cost? I'm guessing $2-$3k?????

Great pictures, I like the main stacking system, looks similar to the Doyle Stack Pack I had on my Catalina 27.

John, if I ever decide to add radar that would be the way to do it and to get the backstay completely out of the cockpit area. Sweet.
