When I picked up my potter last month and put it in Alamitos bay for a
shakedown cruise, Bob Hudnall spent a lot of time talking to me about his
experiences with his P15. He had sold it and bought a McGregor 19M, which
he re-rigged extensively to take the pounding of a trip out to Catalina
Island. He was really helpful and I am sure he would be equally helpful to
you.
His Email is h20pal@juno.com. If you can't seem to get him let me know.

I would like to talk to anyone who has personally sailed a Potter 15 to
Santa
Catalina. I am interested in information on currents, wind states, sea
states, anchorages, best routes, and best launching sites. How early would
it
be possible to do this, April, March? Thanks!
