[quote=davidsd]Look, Sailing is Sailing and I really don't think any of the boats everyone is talking about make a difference if the fundamentals of knowing how to sail apply. If your a beginner than any cat over 18' needs another person for ballast to keep it under control in good winds but four people can be fun on a 20' boat if your out tohave a good time. This means you have to know what you are doing on the water and it doesn't really matter what boat you are going to buy. This is the same for a Hobie 14 or a Hobie 21 as they will all capsize the same, unannounced and at the wrong time. Think of where you see yourself sailing because a 20 footer can be fun if your not serius about getting every last knot out of it and just want to have fun. It's usually drier, can carry more people and is more stable. If you want to sail solo than I would think a Nacra 5.0 or Hobie 16 would be a perfect fit otherwise the 20'r will sit unused becuase it's can be hard to get crew. Whichever you buy only time on the water will help. 8-)[/quote]
