I was thinking about getting something to sail on the small lake near the
property. It would need to be small enough that I deal with, yet big
enough
to take two adults or me and two kids... when the Spring comes or we get
a
stretch of decent weather...

I saw this ad ... don't know anything about Banshee sailboats, but it
seems pretty simple to operate. Comments/opinions? Is that a decent
price?

A very popular open dinghy up here is the CL16...originally a copy of the
Wayfarer.
I had the smaller CL 14... but would go for the larger 16 if I bought
another small sailboat.
Lots of 2nd hand copies for sale in central Canada.

They were built in Canada weren't they?

Sure are. The company started out in the early 60's right here...in Mahone
Bay, about a 40 minute drive south west of Halifax.
Now the company is located in Fort Erie, Ontario
