Moving any of the boats mentioned is not about pure strength. The wave weighs 245lbs. How many people can lift that? It's technique. There are easy step systems for masts. Trailers have rollers. Roll the boat on the wheels and your off. Sunny has stated she is in shape, has a white water kayak background and is determined. She's probably stronger than half the guys telling her what she can't do. The wave is great if sailed in a group like Rick and Mary have, but the first time sailing with other boats and they go by like your tied to a tree will be no fun. Don't spend all summer analizing this to death. Go get a boat(be safe) and have some fun. An inexpensive used boat will be easy to resell. Our fleet has 8-10 women skippers(not big girls) that can single hand a H16. I have been getting beat on the race course by some of them for a while now. attached: My favorite (very little)girl skipper
