Topic: Help? which boat? Posted: 11 Jul 05 at 8:45pm |
Hi im 15, i and weigh 8.5 stone. i currently sail a topaz tres and a dart 16. I am looking to get a singlehander for me to sail. The main thing i want is a trapeze. it must be rightable from a capsize without needing assistance. i am not looking to pay to much either, 1500-2000 max. any suggestions would be really appreciated. thamnks mike

Enough said but since you are only 8.5 stone at the moment it is worth mentioning that they can be reefed.

Your weight suggests "Int Moth". While there is no trapeze, I don't think you would be bored.

Older Moth or A Class........ depends what you want. Cat or Mono. Best advice, which ever is more plentifull in your area. |
