I'm currently (15 yrs) a recreational hobie 17 sport sailor, and think a Wave may be in my future. How does it do in 5 mph "winds"...and how does it do in 15 mph winds?

With 5mph wind stay home, but with 15mph to 25mph get ready to have some fun!

A wave at 5 mph wind speed is faster than a sunfish (with one adult on board) and of course a wave at 15-25mph is a blast. and a sunfish wouldn't be out on the water.

That looks really fun :) I'm just getting into it now and I can't wait to give it a try.
