Hobie Revo 16 review?

So I currently own a revo 13. It's an older model, but it's been really good to me. It's caught fish, taken me to productive spots, and has been a pleasure to fish in. BUT! I am now wanting more speed and storage. Soooo... my sights have been turned to a revo 16.

Steevo did this great review, but I want to know how other revo 16 owners like their speed demon. How's the stability? Tippy? I imagine that 1 less inch from the 13 would make little difference. Fast? For cruising speed I get 2.5-3kts and 3.9kts at best even with my turbo fins. Too slow for me as my trips are usually under a time constraint. And for those who have the 180 drive, do you get solid speed too? I've heard from some youtube reviews that the 180s are a tad slower than the GTT drives. If that is the case I'm hoping that I can get the GTT instead.

Steevo's review.
