Thanks for the feedback! Appreciate the parenting/sailing experience.A Pico is pretty versatile when it comes to sailing it singlehanded or doublehanded. What's more, you can carry it on the roof of your car. Perhaps it is a little dull - over here in Holland, the Pico is widely used by sailing schools. Says something about the characteristics of the boat I think. You can also turn to an RS Feva. Much more interesting and faster (with a gennaker or 'kite' as we call it). You can't put it on the roof, though. Well, at least most European cars are too small for that.
I must say that we (my wife and I) didn't sail much together when my kids where very small. Most cases it was 'singlehanded': one of us took care of the kid(s) when the other went sailing. In that case, a 'normal' Laser will suit you as well! For us, it turned into yachting at a later stage.
I was at a boat show recently and saw a Feva. While it was an interesting boat, it was also pea green. It definitely left me wondering...??They are grey as well...who wants a grey boat?
Why can’t they make these snazzy colors like they did in the old days? Who picks these colors?I was at a boat show recently and saw a Feva. While it was an interesting boat, it was also pea green. It definitely left me wondering...??
