for me it varies depending on the wind;

Light - 400

medium - 800

Howling - 200

But now I obviously have to say 100 aswell!

Cheers,

Keith.

300 comes out top as its such a fun boat and so responsive

500 - such good fun in serious breeze and easy to sail

800 - Only crewed it but felt nice and responsive. Fast, forgiving and fun but never really had that 'on the edge' feeling you get from a 29er. Must try it again though.

400 - felt ok in light but very much felt like a big boys grunty type of boat - not really my type but probably fun in waves

Feva - hated the thing, stupid jib halyard without a proper cleat, slippery floor, made of plastic and the whole rig just flopped around in any sort of chop. Really not impressed with that one. (but probably ok for small kids).

Not tried anything else from their range.

700 - allows a middle aged, unfit, overweight father of two like me to enjoy more performance than I could have imagined a few years ago.
