water trampolines craigslist image
Brooke
I'm turning 15 soon and I want to throw a really awesome unique birthday party. We're willing to spend some money, but I want it to be unique, not just rent a limo or play board games and truth or dare. Preferably something I can do at home (I have a biggish yard so I have space to do it.) We were originally going to get a bouncy castle type thing, but we didn't want anyone to get hurt. Any ideas would help. :)
Answer
well if you have a trampoline use it, if you dont rent or buy one off craigslist, if you have one, but no net, buy a net. get a kiddy pool put ice and drinks in it. have it in the evening. have a bon fire going. have water balloons, squirt guns, music playing, lots of people, have contests, and prizes. get a canopy tent, and put food under it. lots of food depending on the amount of people. if you have a pool, thats even better. i hope i helped.
ps only do the water stuff if you live where its hot, obviously :)

Hobie Cat versus normal sailboat techniques?
Casey
I am an intermediate sailor, and I have a significant amount of experience on lasers, holder-14's, and 20 ft keel boats. I am now feeling ready to buy my first boat, and have been struck by the speed of the hobie cats. What are the major differences between the two? Is the trampoline uncomfortable to sit on for an extended period of time? What length would be good to start for me? I have seen several 14, 16, and 18 foot hobies within my price range on craigslist.com. I live in Folsom, and so would be sailing on Folsom Lake, where (just guestimating here) the winds go anywhere from 10-25 mph on a lake with about a 4 mile diameter. I can't seem to find a place to rent hobie cats in the sacramento area, does anyone know of one?
Thanks for your help in advance,
-Casey
Answer
All cats are notorious with being hard to tack ( bring bow through the eye of the wind).On a 4 mile wide lake & the high speed of a cat you will be tacking very often ( do the math).. Jibing around an option but hard on equipment. Doesnt sound like very much fun. Bigger water the answer.
