[quote=rch701]It all comes down to center of forces. As far as i know a 16 prindle does not have centerboards and thus you could probrably sail around. I have sailed monohulls with only jib before but windward performance was limited. If you give it a try head upwind for the way out so that if it goes to hell you can sail downwind back to shore. You must sail in some deep water to turtle a 25ish foot mast. I am in mobile bay and it tops out at 8ft deep(lots of mud)[/quote]
