trying to find a boat which can be able to take a crew if wanted is very difficult to find. I would recommend a 59er as two person boat and perhaps a finn or phantom for single handed heavy wieghts. Not sure about cats though ------------- Jp Indoe Contender 518 Buzz591 Chew Valley Sailing club Bristol |

I'm slightly biased, of course, but the obvious answer is F16!!!
