Well, John, if I am taking small children out on a boat, I am not concerned at all about how easy the boat is to right, because if it is just me and small children, I am not going to be able to right it no matter what it is -- I'm going to be too busy taking care of the children floating around in the water or worrying about them getting trapped under the boat if it turtles. I want a boat that I can be confident is not going to capsize in the first place. Maybe that's why a lot of sailors with small children prefer a monohull with a keel, or maybe even a Lightning or a Flying Scot, etc.

Actually, I already have a safe catamaran for taking my grandchildren sailing. It's the Hobie Wave (a small, heavy, and underpowered A-Class cat).
