Thanks for the response, Jake. The 5.5 uni and the H17 are both fairly heavy, arent they? Would you foresee any problem righting either of them by one person? Or moving them up and down the beach? I have a dolly but the beach slopes fairly steeply down to the water. Haven't yet had to right the Wave, but, even at 245 lbs, its a bit if a handful getting up the slope after a sail single handed(down is no problem). As I mentioned, I am 160 lbs, and I am in reasonable shape. Have righted my share of small monhulls, but they are much lighter and easier to right, that would be my main concern with the larger (in a relative sense) cats.
