You already made the decision, you are just looking for others to corroborate.
I solo an N5.7 & 5.0, & have sailed a Wave on the ocean, out of Antigua.
They are no where near as fast as other cats, BUT, that is not your greatest need. They are easy, tough, & light.
In a decent wind they are also pretty quick. My wife & I had a hull in the air with both of us on the rear corner & a good blow.
Search the site here posts by "creative". He has video of 16mph on his Wave. I only get 21 on my 5.7, & that is much bigger, complex boat.
remember, you can buy a brand new Wave, tax in, here in Canada for 5K.
Buy the thing, sail the crap out of it. Two years from now trade up, or keep it if it fits the bill.<!-- editby --><em>Edited by Edchris177 on Aug 24, 2013 - 07:34 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
