Flying Scot vs Windrider 17

I know they are very different boats, but I'm just looking for something to take around the intercoastal around Stuart, FL, maybe some camping in the Keys. Any thoughts??

Re: Unknown trimaran

Yeah, thought maybe but the port windows don't look like that. Looks like the amas are next to the trailer and there's quite a bit of overhang on the main hull
