most rs boats that dont include trapezing r really uncomfortable in medium wind - ie not hiking out but not leaning over the leward side to heel - cos theres not much room to manoeuvre and u get bruised |

Sailors don't get old!!! They get a little dinghy (or skiff, or yacht...)

Come on a Mirror has to be up there in the uncomfortable stakes. A
perfectly design gunwale to kill the small of you back and then your knees. Dagger-board which will ruin anyone perineum and side tanks that cut into the back of your calves! Comfortable..... let me thnk.. an RC Marblehead

I always found the buzz comfy in light airs....i used to lie down on the spinnaker chute...! the wayfarer has got to be the most uncomfortable boat on the planet!....in light winds you have to dangle over the leeward side and in strong winds you have to hike over the painfully shaped side! |

The buzz is uncomfortable for crew in light winds and you end up crouching on the floor on your knees and cut them up so much from all that grip stuff

not too good for the crew though, but that new fangled upside down kicker should solve that

Fireflies are uncomfortable in o wind, but in lots they're lovely.
Mirrors are so painful if ur just perching on the gunwhale, but if ur
on the seat or hiking they're ok.
