Does anyone use jib snorkels? If so where did you get it from? Need one for a Hobie 21SE needs to be 23' x 18.5".

My son has a furling jib on his H-16 and I got a snorkel from racedaytramp on e-bay. That thing is great, well made and no problems at all. This link is for H-21SE but it's not 23'. Contact them and they can probably make one if you really need it that long.

Yes, by all means~~ use one,,, ya don't want the UV rays to destroy it or the wind. They saved my in a couple of wind storms.. I have a 17 Hobie with a super jib (roller) and a 18 Hobie mag. so I strongly suggest getting one....
Raceday tramp guy is good and cheaper than anyone, ya can call him.... Murrays has them to
