How the heck do you reach the lever. If the boat is on its side you can’t reach the shroud from the bottom hull. Not even on an 8ft wide boat. If you ...

The express 6.0 for clarity is a Nacra 6.0 Express

Your description is a little exaggerated. There’s probably hundreds of cat sailors that have done that sail. Especially in the 80s-90s. There’s even ...

Why are you calling it balsa core? The core is foam. Balsa is a type of wood

What’s the tension on the outer and inner wires? Do you have a gauge?

I’m pretty sure the forestay doesn’t change. The angle stays the same as far as pulling on the bows. It’s just extension tube that goes down to the sp...

I could lick my yellow lead Hobie gelcoat every day for the rest of my life and the only change would be that my boat was cleaner.

What part of Virginia is the warehouse? I’m in Raleigh NC and then Chesapeake VA through the weekend with my trailer and could bring a mast back to No...

I got a rat rig 500 that I do parts out of when needed. Next project is doing a whole rudder casting of my own design. Ultimately want to use carbon n...

It’s been done. You’re fine. H20 style you could run a cable between the jib cars and let the block pull on that and just have a line to resist the ca...

We want to try and get all the Jax H18s to go this year. Bunch of new people that would have fun at a friendly event like this.

He replied to one of my emails a few days ago. Maybe you just aren’t cool enough…Edited by tamumpower1 on Feb 02, 2022 - 12:06 AM.

I had a parks and game guy come out to my boat to verify the vin when I got my first boat 6 years ago in FL because it had previously been titled. He ...

For the record because apparently no one on here that owns a loos gauge has ever used it on a soft diamond rig: If you can touch your diamonds to the ...

The whole platform is built for the weight and stress of 1 person. Youll break stuff, possibly even the beams by putting the weight of 2 people on the...

Center the rotator. It will still wiggle but won’t bang. I do it all the time when setting up in chop

The 22 around here has a carbon mast. I wouldn’t imagine it would be too hard to step. Although he’s able to keep it mast up across from the club.

I got one too. If you find him on Facebook he can do custom colors and weaves. I have a black carbon with gold wire in the weave that gives the boat e...

Yea that magic marine bar looks like a better option to me than the locking ball. I'd have to weld on a bottom loop on each side for the way hobie run...

2 take down points can run a lot more taper. The opening usually gets clogged up with a large wad of spin initially but once it’s in the sock it’s goi...

The ones I’ve made have a slight taper. You can test it by taping the material together in whatever shape you want. Biggest thing for mine was tying t...

Dude an 10 year old can handle a wave. Seen it at summer camp a million times. I went out on another members Getaway and it is pretty decent but still...

Stainless wont do anything to aluminum castings if you use the nylon bushings like you are supposed to or even better make some brass ones and then yo...

My 85 redline H18 had a coleman logo within the pinstripe when I got it. My 86 redline H18 didnt.
