[quote=Wolfman]I just got back into sailing after many years and purchased a Nacra 5.2 (many similarities to the FXone). Without the jib it is easy to single hand, very fast and forgiving compared to my old H16). The daggerboards are a bit of a headache though.
I would look at some of the other Nacras without daggerboards as a first choice such as the 5.0 (500) and 5.7 (570). They are comparable to the boats you mention without daggerboards and they are boomless. You can pick an older one up relatively inexpensively and still get all the parts for them because they are still in production.
If you don't mind the daggerboards the 5.2 and 5.5 are viable options and can be had for even less money. Everything is still in production for these boats except the hulls themeselves and maybe the mast (crossbeams are interchangeable with the 5.7 I believe).
