[quote=martin_langhoff]Foiling is addictive fun, and small cats are the most stable, approachable foilers. You can't keep people away from fun stuff :)
Right now, Stunt S9 and Whisper are the two easiest foilers imo, and are cats. Essentially, if you can handle a modern cat, you can foil. There's stuff to learn, naturally, and if you can get a few outings with an experienced foiler you'll fast track your learning process.
There's also the UFO, and that's an odd boat but damn fun, durable and an unbeatable price.
If you like to drive your cat fast... don't theorize; try one! I'm in Miami and happy to take friendly folks for a ride.
All the boats mentioned here work well in displacement mode, and are stable, so you can opt to sail slow/safe. Some have straight boards you can opt to use instead.
Moths and Wazsps are inherently unstable - can't stop to eat a sandwich, nor sail them conservatively; there's a degree of masochism involved in sailing then ;)
As for myself, I got my hands on a Whisper, which I currently sail withy 8yo son. It's a hoot. I've taken my mother in law foiling. We have lots of videos, from early displacement runs to full flight https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwa0EvPl3EP65GVsM8EqCMA[/quote]
