Yes but my last attempt (MPS) proved fruitless, so what would you recommend? Contender? They weigh a ton and have massive sails for my 67 kgs. Farr 3.7? I wouldn't sail a board less than 3.9, so that's hardly going to cut it. Not much choice in single handed trapeze boats that are manageable, don't even talk about RS600's |

If I sailed at a sea venue then it would be hard to look past the Contender right now....
it would be worth a cal to P&B though first, ask Ben McGrane about that high cut clew sail. I don't like the thought of getting under that boom- but to be fair, I haven't sailed one since 1996, so it's a bit difficult to remember how much of an issue it would be.

67kgs is never gonna make a Contender viable ...

cut down sail? I would have thought it 'could' work for light-to-moderate wind sailing. Graeme is at least sensible enough to know when dinghy sailors start talking about testing their 'heavy air technique' it's time to reach for a board or kite....
