Reply to: Learning on a Hobie 20 Miracle

[quote=Andinista]But why a H16 mast and not just a sail? He would just need to figure out how to deal with the halyard lock. Anyway, putting aside the experience, the real challenge is to alternate between solo and the 650# two couples. A Getaway would do that but it's a family boat, much slower. Maybe the H. Pacific as suggested might do that, I don't know. Apparently with a lower compromise on speed. But not on the same budget, that's a new boat, right? I think the most relevant factor to your decision is whether you really will be sailing solo most of the time. It doesn't sound a good idea then, independently of your experience. But if you will be sailing two or three most of the time, probably it's not that crazy, though a bit irresposible in the initial phase. I would say get a partner for that initial period or carefully chose ligth winds, if that is really possible. Also you should think about how to right the boat solo, I think you need a righting bar.[/quote]
