[quote=klozhald][quote=coleinthetube]I would like to add a front trampoline to a completely stock, pre-1985 Hobie 16 [/quote]
Don't put any effort into this.
You will not be happy with the results on a H 16.
The smallest wave/wake will swamp the front net and its contents, over and over again.
Someone in the local fleet tried it years ago.
Once.
Save the idea for when you have a cat with more buoyancy up front.
Quite a few folks here have tried in on Hobie 18, Prindles and Nacras.[/quote]
