Well guys, thanks for the wealth of input. I'm gonna give it a try, the check's in the mail tomorrow. The F16 may be a bit closer to my needs, but the price difference has suckered me in. I do have the Boyer for solo work, and this boat is really a lightweight replacement for the SC, which was primarily used for hi wind work. I'm pretty sure I can have a good time with it, and if not, it can be replaced. Much appreciation for all the support and encouragement!
