I would recomend the Vago, they are fun to sail, can be sailed single or double handed, the XD has a trapeze and with two sail sizes they offer some scope for different weights and abilities etc. Although the Vago is cheap the quality of fittings is up to the same standard as the L2K and the Stratos, i.e. they are cheap because of the plastic hulls not the quality of fittings. In addition Queen Mary have run a couple of Vago's as club boats and haven't had any problems with them.

The L2K is a lovely boat, which is just starting to look a bit pricey now. They are ideal as club boats and again Queen Mary run a large fleet without major problems, just the usual problems of careless use and abuse.

rs fevas are good for younger members. dont by the old hulls though because they crack at the back. they are the ones where the self draining doesnt have holes. if you want something for all ages i think you should go with either a taser (because they look cool) or a 200 sounds good.
600 732, will call it Sticks and Stones when i get round to it.
Also International 14, 1318
