Reply to: Hobie 16 Group Sails to Catalina Island

[quote=Dogboy][quote=onemorecat]BTW, something I'd never really appreciated till I watched that video is how HIGH the H16 tramp sits out of the water compared to the H18. [/quote] This is true to an extent, however the hulls on the H16 also have considerably less volume than the 18. So when sailing, the leeward hull on the 16 is nearly completely submerged. The lower volume on the 16 also makes it much more susceptible to pitchpoling or going over backwards when compared to the 18. If you want the best of both worlds, look into getting a set of wings for your 18. sm[/quote]
