To All,

Can anyone tell me where the H16 is classified in the portsmouth ratings? Thanks!

The Portsmouth rating for the Hobie 16 is about 76.0 depending on the wind conditions.

See : http://www.ussailing.org/portsmouth/tab ... es06mh.htm

Hey Loren,

Thanks a lot for the info and the link. They were a big help. I could not have asked for more. Thanks again.

Happy Sailing,

David

My pleasure, David.

Does the Bell47 moniker mean you are a helicopter pilot? I was a medical evacuation pilot in Vietnam and took my instrument training in a Bell 47.

Hey Loren,

The Bell47 is my name and year of birth but I'm familiar with the craft. While I'm at it, I want to thank you for your services during times past in the Nam. There are a lot of people alive today because of you and guys like you that flew in flying targets to save others. You will never be forgotten. Again, I thank you.

Happy Sailing,

David
