One looks like a Hobie Getaway hinge for the mast step

I have purchased at least 10 tramps from slosails (I refurbish boats and have done so for 20 years) I have found the tramps to be quality made with go...

Adding a boom may be the simplest and safest way to go A Prindle 18 Nacra F18 or similar booms and fitting will work

The jib will make tacking one heck of a lot easier

You will need Jib and jib halyard Jib blocks and jib sheet Bow spreader pole and Tangs for bow spreader pole misl nuts and bolts and shackles

Appears to be a Hobie 14

The first thing you have to remember is that when trying to depower a spin when the boat starts to heal up too much is that you MUST fall off instead ...

NEVER LISTEN TO ONE AND JUDGE TWO, WHICH VERY OFTEN IS THE CASE ON THIS SITE!!!!!!!!!!!

Just wondering if you have tried sheeting out some mainsheet when the boat comes head to wind while tacking. I have just looked up tacking catamarans ...

A Prindle 16 does not have a mast rotator control, only stops on the mast base.

When tacking as you go across the tramp while swinging the tiller around you should SHEET OUT approx. 2-3 feet of mainsheet and then recleat. That mov...

For me there would be an issue with all the inspection ports added (there is a reason) there appears to be a total of 8. There should only be 2, one a...

Try adjusting the mast rotation control while sailing to see if that helps.

I would try www.catsailor.com there are more sailors on that site that would be familiar with the Dart catamarans

I have only seen one, but it seems to look like a Chrysler catamaran, yes they did make a beach cat for a few years.

Not an 18-2, I am working on one now and they don't come close to looking alike. May not be American made. Is there an hull ID# anywhere

I am a current nacra owner and have been for the past 20 years and love my nacra's. I currently have an F18. The thing that I have noticed on a few of...

You can adjust the locking bolt so that it takes more pressure to kick up when sailing in kelp, but remember when coming into the beach it will also t...

Using an aluminum pin against SS gudgens will make wear groves in the pins. You will not see that happen if you use SS pins

The first thing to check is the tension of the dolphin striker (the flat bar part) it should only have about 1/4 inch of play with the mast up. If tha...

You have to drop the mast, remove the beam straps on one side of the front beam so you can lift the beam high enough to slide the tramp out

The boat is in Delray Beach Florida 33444

There is a mid 90's 4sale on our beach

I sent you an email
