  I'd like to see the one with two doubles.  My long-term goal is to have a boat similar in size to yours.  If it fits into a container, that's perfect.  If not, I basically want it to collapse down to 12' so I can transport it over roads.  While 12' does require a wide load permit, it's the max width for trailering without an escort vehicle. 

  Since I'd only trailer it a few miles twice a year, I don't really care about the 8.5' limit for trailering without a permit.  This would be mostly to be able to avoid boatyard fees.

  Anyway, my wife and I would like to be able to take another couple with us, and wouldn't want to banish them to singles (though perhaps it's nice to have the option for two guests to *not* sleep together).
