Lark - old boats remain competitive. 3 sails to play with. For that money you could pick up a good Parker II and get a new set of sails. Fit it out how you want. With 20st you'll fly.
Like some other things - sailing is more enjoyable when you do it with someone else

You might find that at 20st you are a little light for a Lark in a blow, will fly in sub F3 though. We are about 24st and are ok in most wind strenghts that we've been out in  (up to F5 gusting 6), we have only had the boat since Feb thought so could be wrong.

Gotta be a national 12, not really a question. We had a 12 out at bbsc a le weekend dernier and it happily kept up with some pretty decent 200s. Oh i forgot to mention it's the first ever baggy trousers so it's pretty old skl
