Hi Peter, When my wife and I decided to buy a folding kayak, we faced almost the same dilemma. Some people advised to buy two singles since a double is a "divorce boat". After some experience we would say: Buy a double it will strenghten your relationship and make you a better team. Just be wise on who is sitting in front or in the back. For us it works best that we change seats form time to time. Only in case of strong headwind (that happens a lot in Holland!) I (Nico-Dirk) sit in front. We own a Klepper Quattro (= four ponson expedition). It paddles fine as a single in the expedition mode. With all ponsons inflated you have to work very hard when you are on your own. Happy teambuilding!
