Forgiving trapeze boat...?

   Spice.

Twin wire, nice large kite, pretty speedy when the wind gets up, but we were sailing it today in about 20 knts ( gusting more ... ) with about 120kg all up. 

Only capsised once because the helm dropped the tiller.

	Hi again. Lately i have been looking for a boat the either has asymmetric or symmetric spinnakers. It'd be nice if it was fairly forgiving and a be good trainer for something like an RS800 (hopefully future boat). We only weigh about 115 - 120 kgs together. Id be sailing this with my son aswel. Smallish lake with the possibility of the tide on some weekends. Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated
