[quote=MN3]the 17 is a fun cat but
VERY (VERY VERY) WET!
parts and support are available
a well sailed one should smoke a prindle/hobie 16
they are board-less (most 18's have boards)
the biggest drawback (imho) is the mast is very heavy (compared to ALL 16's and even most 18's) - & this is why they have shroud extenders (for righting the boat with a heavy mast)<!-- editby --><em>Edited by MN3 on Nov 08, 2012 - 06:30 AM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
