Great topic!
I currently sail a Hunter 170. In many ways this IS my ideal boat. It is very easy to rig and launch, sails like a dream and packs a ton of fun. For the small inland lake near my home this boat is perfect . . . . But, I have been suffering from 3footitis for a couple years now. Having grown up on Lake Huron I can't help taking my 170 to the Great Lakes where the wind and waves often are too much for it.
My current dream boat is the Compac Eclipse. It seems to offer the stability my wife craves (the 170 is to "tippy"for her taste), with the ease and fun that I crave.
I guess I would like a slightly larger boat to take me on slightly larger adventures.
