PICNIC CAT
A Picnic Cat™ is a 14 foot, gaff-rigged catboat with a Mastendr™ Quick Rig Sailing System. Setup and retrieval take less that 10 minutes because gaff, boom, sail, and hinged mast remain on the boat while trailering, as do the shrouds.

Draws 6 inches with centerboard up; 38 inches with centerboard down. She carries 109 square feet of sail and has a 9 foot 6 inch cockpit. Designed by Clark Mills. This boat comes with a trailer!
