[quote=catman1122]Hi Dave,
Before you set your sights on a Hobie 16 or 18 you might conceder a Cat without a jib. My 18 square may not be the boat for you but it has only a main sail to deal with which makes it a no brainer to tack and to dump the power when you're in a gust. Easier to set up and break down too. Key word here is ?easy? Not having a jib doesn't mean it's slow either. Some like my Climax 18 are lightning fast and point higher because they have no jib. There are other Cats with this kind of set up and being that it's your first boat it could be the most practical choice. The Hobie 14 has only a main I think and you can pick on up cheep.
