Thanks for the helpful suggestions—I'm making a purchase. I and one of the Acat sailor from Annapolis area just put deposits on two of the Alter Cup boats. We're totally new to F16, but excited about getting into it. We'll now have 4 F16s on the Chesapeake, that I know of (2 Tipans & 2 Blades). I've been sailing I20s for many years, but never owned one. Decided on an F16 for light weight and option to sail single as well as with spin. It appears that the F16 is getting popular in Florida. Hope to get down there again soon.
Thanks again,
John
