I've sailed cats only 3 times before. One of them was a hobie 14 (jibless) - and I wasn't too impressed as it was sluggish and had trouble tacking. However, I will soon be trading my cruddy sunfish in for a catamaran, and I am highly considering a hobie 14 turbo (with jib) or a hobie 16. They're both about the same price ($850), and appear in good condition. Which should I get? I'm inclined to go with the 16', as I would like the extra passenger room and the opportunity to sail a bit harder. Is the 16' too much for a beginner to handle?

Anyone in the market for a sunfish?
