artemis 20

I recently returned from a trip to England and France and had the opportunity to see the Artemis 20. As my wife is seriously handicapped after an elevator crash, she has limited mobility. Before the accident we had sailed in boats ranging from a Rhodes 19 to a Beneteau 321. Our last boat was a J80.

We have been looking a handicapped accessible boats and would like some opinions as to the following:
1. stability
2. ease of use
3. fun factor
4. compatability with plain old day sailing

My wife is 5'6" and I'm 6'2" and our combined weight is about 520lbs.

Any thoughts on: Harbor 20, Artemis 20, SKUD 18..........etc would be GREATLY appreciated.

Rob
