So did you get your spinnaker set up? I am curious as to how the Hobie 16 handled with a spinnaker. Was it a handful or was it manageable? Was it fast?

I have seen lots of videos of H16s with spinnakers on youtube and I have to say it does look quite cool. I race in a small mixed fleet and most of the boats are rated much faster (H21SE, Dart 20, Tiger ). I was wondering if the spinnaker would help me keep up to the crowd. Or maybe it might slow me down given that it might be too much to handle especially when it gets windier.
