There are no Hobie official hull toe-in specifications to my knowledge.

I think the official Hobie instructions are to tension the tension rod so that there is no slack and then turn each nut a few full rotations more. From an engineering perspective you want enought tension in the tension rod that the tension rod stays in tension through most waves and rough water.

Ciao
