That's exactly what he thinks, the only concern is that there is already a small monohull getting dust on the beach, similar to this one:

It's a small and slow boat, so it´s understandable, I'm sure the Wave would do much better, I just fear he might end up finding it too small pretty soon. But if the Geataway is not really well suited for single handing in a lazy way, with low chances of capsizing, it´s probably not his choie anyway.
