Catamaran
Hi Garrett99. Thank you for your message at my Talk page. It took me a little while to find it, until I noticed that you put it at the top of my talk page! Typically, one clicks on the "New section" tab, which automatically adds a new comment to the bottom of the page.

As to your question about edits, you may not be familiar with WP:Watchlists, where you can track edits of interest to you—or with an article's "View history" tab, where you can see the changes that have been made since your last edit.

You expressed curiosity about [this edit] where I removed material that you had provided with the edit comment, "Removing good-faith material that is one particular aspect of managing power under sail and represents WP:NOTHOWTO. ..." This is something that you can discuss at Talk:Catamaran, whether the use of a sea drogue is key to this type of sailing craft, or whether the description properly belongs in Sea anchor as a more generally applicable topic.

I'll watch for your reply, here. Cheers, User:HopsonRoad 18:11, 27 February 2017 (UTC)
