whats a good singlehander for uberlightweights?? im 8 stone and 5'4"
needs to be very quick or unstable as i get bored. prefer to kitesurf
but im nowhere near the sea anymore so wanna get back into sailin.
class full of pissheads would be a bonus. and dont say cherub, they arent a singlehander  |

And...hmmm...no, Rick is right, the Moth is about it, really, seeing as the MXRay has no class to be pissheads with! All the other fast classes need some weight behind them - you'd even get people telling you you are too light for a Topper on this forum!

There's an Osprey with your name on it somewhere Gordon  .But, in response to the original question, a Moth would give you endless hours of amusement. |

A Class....
Or you could try an F-16...... Race one up with main and kite, or put on a jib and second set of trap wires and race 2 up on the same yardstick...... Also very close on yardstick to A's and F-18s. |

i think i know the awnser to why there are not meany fast boats for small people
to go fast you need lots of power and to do that you need lots a waight to keep it going the same way as you are may be we need a boat where there is balest on top of the dect and we can move it around wit a rope sistem or with your hands a bit like a IC seat |
