Any ideas? Thanks

If you like to go out for long, you may want the 4/3 a 3/2 might be more ideal. If the weather is warm, you may be a bit toasty in the 4/3. If a real strong cold front comes through the 4/3 might be just the ticket with the 2/1 leaving you cold. Some guys go out with just a rash guard but the sessions may be fairly short in some cases. I usually wear a full 3/2 until sometime in spring at this point barring real cold fronts then the 4/3 goes on.
How much do you weigh Doc and what is your comfortable wind range with the two kites? Usually, I would say to bring both and a smaller kite as well. Without enough room, it may come down to your comfortable low end on the 10 m and high end on the 13 m I think. Of course Delray is a wave spot, requiring a bit more kite power than a flat water venue.
Regarding instructors, there are quite a few listed at:
