Here's a glimpse at two features on the Chris-Craft 29 Catalina that caught our eye when we reviewed the boat. Part of the credit for this boat's smooth ride goes to its weight distribution; it comes up on plane without gobs of bowrise, and stays flat as you apply power. Check out this short video, and you'll see one of the reasons why - as well as some other evidence of smart design on the Catalina 29.

The Tragic Story of Franz Reichelt and His Failed Parachute Suit Jump from the Eiffel Tower Franz Reichelt, an Austrian-born French tailor, inventor, and parachuting pioneer, died while testing his parachute suit by jumping off the Eiffel Tower in 1912. Reichelt had become fixated on developing a suit for aviators that would convert into a parachute and allow them to survive a fall should they be forced to leave their aircraft in mid-air. Despite numerous efforts to dissuade him, Reichelt was adamant about taking the jump himself. The parachute failed to deploy, and he plunged 187 ft (57 m) to his death. This video tells the tragic story of Franz Reichelt and his failed parachute suit jump from the Eiffel Tower.
