Weight Carrying Double Hander


   Currently I'm considering getting a boat to travel with, it needs to be able to carry 26-30 stone without causing issues and ideally to have a trapeze/twin trapeze.  The problem is that I have little experience of the weight carrying abilities of the boats that have popped up that may have enough power:

Cheap (<£1500)
Laser 5000
Laser 4000
ISO

Medium (£2000-£4000)
49er (Older rig)
RS800

Expensive (£5000+)
505

I've grouped them by approximate price for a half decent second hand boat (although this is just from what i've seen on apolloduck etc) - again if this is wrong can you let me know?  Also have i missed any boats out?  I know the Alto possibly fits the bill but can't find any for sale second hand to get an idea of price and don't know much about them.
