Why do I sail a H14, because it is fun to sail, very sensitive to ones weight distribution, great in the surf, and all out fun in a blow. It reminds me of a Laser in that you have to learn how to sail it and to win races you have to sail it well and get everything in balance to make it go just like its bigger brother the H16. What other small cat requires so many skills and techniques to make it perform at its best. You can keep learning on a cat with so little adjustments and really focus on ones skill level on not on what hardware you have, or the latest and greatest trick gear. There is so much to the H14 beyond what meets the eye. I am glad to see the H14 making a come back here in the US and Europe, in the world for that matter. The H14 truly is a classic!
