Trust me when I say you can trust jaybird on this particular topic.

There are good deals on Hobie 20s all over the place these days, so that's no reason to rush into a boat that might not suit you. Hook up with the TC...

FWIW.....I sold my H16 spin kit (the newer version from Hobie Europe) to a guy who was going to put it on his H17. Don't know how it went, but he, at...

Maybe in the store on Rick's site! 🙂

Maybe I misunderstand the question, but on Hobies square SS nuts are used to attach hardware such as a downhaul cleat in the luff track of the mast.

Agree with SM. When I first sailed it, I was pleasantly surprised that I could trap out, fly a hull, beam reach, etc. on the 14T at ~185 lbs. At my ...
