Im 17 and i bought my hobie 16 3 years ago which made me the same age as you are now and i used to go one up all the time because i was always bored. If i can sail it one up you can definately sail it easy enough by yourself and friends. Im now working at the sailing school here and we always put a heap of kids on the 16s but there is only one problem. Well if your by yourself you really have to be careful about capsizing with out a righting bag. You can get away with skill in righting the boat but at 14 i don think you would be there just yet.
If you think you will be going out in strong brezes i also dont think the 16 is the best idea but its a great boat and will last you a life time.
Well if you want to know any more just give me a email.
