Hello all, I've asked this question on the Hobie forums but I figured I'd try it out here as well. Being that this is an open forum for all designs I figured I'd get a more rounded answer. Assuming I had the money to go out and buy a new cat, what would be the best boat for a 250lbs, 6'5" guy, that prefers to sail solo? I'm a little heavier than I'd like to be, but realisticly my body frame isn't going to carry anything less than about 220lbs. I am really quite partial to hobies and it seems like the TheMightyHobie18 would be a good choice for me, but what do ya'll think? There is definately going to be a new boat sometime in my future within the next 5-7 years I hope. Of course, being a H16 sailor, a new one is literally the things dreams are made of, but I know I'm a little on the heavy side for that particular class. What do ya'll think?
