Hi there, What boat for a large framed 15-16 stoner, that I can comfortably take the other half on (7 stone), but want to be able to sail on my own. I see people rave about the 59er, but I dont think that will work on my own... Thanks for any replies... Mark |

Both ideal boats for taking the other half out on... (we need a *rolls eyes* emoticon) I dont think youl find anything ideal for both, what will you be doing more often? Something like a laser 2 maby? you could have a lot of fun singlehanding it but plenty of room for 2 |

you post to fast its not about how quick you can get 5 stars its more about how worthe while your posts are and if people understand them. Laser 2 is a good cheap option but you would strugle with a symetric kite on your own. Vago maybe still relatively expensive Kind of stuck here not to sure let me think for a while ill get back to you. |

Hadnt seen the Vago before....doesnt look too bad, but I think it might scare the scap out of the other half.....

if you want feva_boy can real you off everything you need to know about any boat size, dimension designer latest sail number. well if it doesnt have to be a dinghy and you are quite a built guy a Hobie FX1 is you perfect choice. Super perfoamnce one up but can add a jib and 2nd trapeze. only the bit about your last post about your wife im not sure she would be to keen but still a great boat. |
