[quote=Dogboy]In light wind or flat water, the 17 is fine with two on board. When it gets a little rougher, the front crossbar has a tendency to hit waves and the leeward hull bogs down a bit. My wife and I have sailed ours together a couple times and it's still fun, but in stronger wind i prefer the 18. Its just a better ride. Again, the 17 was primarily designed as a single hander. The sport package was really an afterthought. I would go for the 17 if you planned to do say 75% solo sailing and 25% with crew. If you're going to sail primarily with crew, I would suggest a 16 or 18.
