Re: [Paddlewise] Folders: single, double, girlfriend?

My experience as well.

My first human powered boat was a Winona Sundowner.  A great tandem canoe.
My (then new) wife went with me to pick it out.  She even went out with me a
couple times.  Last fall I pulled it out from under the tree where I had
stored it.  Ivy had grown over it.  I sold it.

Get the single.  If partner wants a boat.  Get her one later.  Get her one
you would like to paddle.

Been there, done that
Bob
