Default One kite to take place of 16 meter and 12 meter

Currently, I have a 2006 16 meter crossbow and a 2006 12 meter crossbow. They have been great kites, but am thinking about getting rid of them in favor of a kite that could take both of their places. The reasoning behind this is that I feel there is too much overlap in wind range between the two. I live on the East coast of Florida, weight 160 lbs, use a Airush Exile, and most of the time ride the 16 meter. Most of the time, the winds never get above 15 knots in the summertime and usually hover between 10-15 knots. Everytime I take out the 12 meter, I feel that I could have probably used the 16 meter and been better off.

The Cabrinha kites have been good to me and was thinking about a 14 meter revolver or possibly a 14 meter contra to take the 2 kites place. I am not financially in the market for the new IDS models. Any feedback or suggestions would be appreciated.
