Hello
I have been in the market for a cat for about a year now and found many offers to purchase a Hobie 16. I recently recived a great deal on a Prindle 16 but i am not too familiar with them. I just have a few questions regarding both boats and wich one would be right for me.
-I currently weigh 165 lbs and will be doing alot of the sailing solo
-I am concerned about the pitch pole factor but have not heard too much about the prindle 16
-Are Prindles still made today?? and how hard are spare parts to find? (Just worried about buying a headach if something goes wrong and i need new parts. sails, spars, etc.)
-Does the hobie 16 sit higher off the water than the prindle?
Thank you
