Greetings all.
I've been lurking for a while now and am looking for a recommendation. I am trying to decide between an Arctic Tern and a Coho. I am 5'6" and 155 lbs. I live at the North end of a 20 mile long bay that is orineted straight South from here (Mobile bay) and in the summer, afternoon winds of 20 mph are not at all uncommon.
For mostly day tripping in the delta and down into the bay, which design would be better? Is either one going to be too big? Also since on calmer days my family will be along in their boats, I need a fairly agile sprinter in case I have to do the dad thing. Oh yeah, just to make it more interesting, we won't be doing much kayak camping or anything (at least it's not in the plans today), but I get to run the designated cargo boat (am I looking for a guide boat here?).
Thanks.
