To recap previous comments:
1. H-17 is a true one design, no changes since it was introduced 20 years ago.
2. Low cost, less than one half of the A, for new, and even more savings for a used one.
3. Very rugged, and easy to repair.
4. Will handle high winds, and comes alive over 20.
5. Easy to set up, and launch.

Do not understand the comments about problems single handling. I step my mast while on the trailer, and launch, reload, by myself all the time. Pulley at front of trailer, with line to trap line to assist mast up and down. Small hand winch on trailer, at cross bar stop to pull boat out, back on trailer. Piece of cake, even in the dark.
