Let me explain where I am coming from. I have a H14 I think I am going to sell and go to a wave for single handing. I am a 55 year old that started sailing/racing Hobies when there was only a 14 and a Nacra 5.2 before there was a 5.8. Now I don't race so much but like to take day long cruises, usually solo. Winds 5-12knots, sometimes more. I do like to double trap with the wife about 3 times a summer I can get her out on the boat. Since I have the 5.8 the choice becomes modify her because the boat is bullet proof, or sell it and get a Hobie Getaway with wings. I aappreciate all the advice so far.
