Hi Chuck!
I would be interested in a few pics on how you ran the traveler lines.
Tanx!

Doug - I have not experienced your issue with the C320 rounding up easily.
I single-hand a lot, and I have extended the traveler sheets to the back of
the cockpit.  If I get a gust, then I can easily ease the traveler to reduce
heel angle.  I've found that the 320 sails best with moderate heel angles.

All, 

I took some of the feedback that I received from the members on the list a
couple weeks ago and modified my "Buying a C320" article to be more
comprehensive. I've turned it into a blog entry and featured it on my blog.
I broke out the article into two parts. 

Part one is here:
http://savvysailor.blogspot.com/2016/05/buying-catalina-320-part-1.html 

Part two will be coming in a few days to a week. I'll post here when it goes
live as well. 

If you think of anything additional to add that makes the article more
complete, feel free to send me feedback or comment on the blog.
