[quote=samc99us]I agree with Dogboy on the Hobie 18. You can also add the Hobie Tiger to that list, there have been some very good deals on those boats around and they are a very up to date version of the Hobie 18. Not super competitive on a race course anymore but hard to beat for day sailing/cruising/generally going FAST.
Between the H16 and Prindle 16 I would vote for the Hobie, the Prindle hulls are pretty thin on the bottom and in places on the sides and I think get softer faster than a Hobie 16. Also, Prindle rudders and general parts availability is less than the Hobie. I'll echo thoughts above though, be careful what you buy as even if complete, you can spend a ton of money replacing trampolines, shrouds, failing lexan rudder blades and sails->Hobie Tiger could cost less $.[/quote]
