    I was going to take it out for one of the last times.. I have been sailing f16s so i never had time to sail the hobie.
    it was fun the past 5 years though

    Sundown cruise for your H16.
    We'll face the setting sun with hats in hand, and toast your loss.
    Most have us have sailed/owned an H16, some for quite a while.
    Post the parts here on thebeachcats.com, and your "organ donations" will help someone sail their cat.
    Glad to see you made it to shore on one hull.

    Job well done....you got every little bit of fun out of her!

    Did the same thing to my Prindle 18 a few years ago, but we managed to get her about 100 yards from shore before she went stern down. Took out BOTH hulls. Managed to pull her ashore and salvaged parts. Got more for the parts than I paid for the boat.

    You've literally sailed the crap out of it. Time to start a new legacy with the next boat!

    What boat are you thinking next? Another 16?
