I'm looking to buy a used Catamaran Sailboat to sail off the beach in the Gulf of Mexico. I don't know anything about any manufactres of catamrans besides Hobie, and I'm wondering if there are any other alternatives?
Does anyone know if any year Hobie Cat is worse than others, or better than others? Is there a large improvement in the newest models? Is the 16' have enough room for 4 people and an ice chest? Does the 16' have a main and a jib or more?
Anyway, I've sailed small FJs semi-competitivly recently, but I want something bigger for use in the ocean.
Any other head-fiers into sailing? If so, any advice will be appreciated.
oh yeah, and...
Where is a good place to find/buy a used sailboat?
