[quote=gobigkahuna]I've thought about this also. A friend here had a Getaway then got a Weta and now has a Hobie Adventure Island. He complained that the Getaway was too difficult to rig by himself, and the Weta took too long to rig. He now swears by his Adventure Island.
But I tend to lean in the same direction as you. I'm more interested in a boat that is more sailing oriented than a sailing kayak. But besides being easier to transport and rig, the Adventure Island is also a better human propelled boat. So if you anticipate paddling a fair bit, that might be worth considering.
For me, I have no reservations about mounting an outboard motor. Paddling an 18 / 20 foot cat against any current doesn't sound very appealing to me. ;)[/quote]
