[quote=DamonLinkous][quote=nam]So the wife and I are very close to pulling the trigger on a used Hobie 16. This will be the first catamaran for us (though we've sailed them a bunch with friends). So my question is about sail numbers. For the most part H16 sail numbers seem to go up as the construction date gets later. This one, however, is a ~1992 boat with a 3-digit sail number. What does that mean? I am thinking that it may have once been a race boat and that these are the old race sails, but not sure.
Thanks![/quote]
nam,
Welcome to TheBeachcats.com and good luck on getting your first beachcat!
A picture of the sail would probably clear things up. Check if the sail is an actual Hobie sail, if it's a factory sail it will have a fairly large Hobie logo patch at the corner of the main and jib. If it's an aftermarket wail the number doesn't mean anything.
What does the seller say about the sail?[/quote]
