Isn't the HC Skiff an 18', 450 lb. boat? Seems for someone
considering a small boat like Teal but wanting reasonable
accommodation for three, maybe Windsprint or Surf would split the
difference better. At least two people can hoist those two.
I've been considering a Gypsy as my next boat (of course not even
done yet with the current project) and I was wondering if anyone had
built one of those, and whether they can comfortably accommodate
three people for a daysail, or only two?
Thanks for any advice.

However, I don't think it's the boat for you. May I recommend trying
Michalak's HC Skiff? That looks a lot more like the kind of boat you have
in mind.
Look for it mentioned in the hot links at the bottom of:

BTW, you may not know it, but it is not good form to request off-line
answers to questions. It defeats the purpose of the forum, and deprives
members of the information and ideas. In general, it suggests that a
person might want to benefits of group membership, but without incurring
the costs of participation. I realize that you may not know this, but
it's an important point to make every so often.

kids. It's reasonably stable, and reasonably seaworthy, too.
However, I don't think it's the boat for you. May I recommend trying
Michalak's HC Skiff? That looks a lot more like the kind of boat you have
in mind.
