| Post subject: | Scavenging parts of a Hobie 18 |
I have a '76 Hobie 16. There is a Hobie 18 that has been sitting in the sea oats near where I keep my boat. I know who owns it and want to know what parts would be interchangeble bwtween the 16 and 18. It has been sitting out in the weather uncovered for at least a 3 years unmoved. I have been looking for a cheap pair of epo rudders and this boat has them. I think the parts number is different in the Hobie catalog for the 18/16 rudders. Would the 18 rudders hinder the performance more or less than the original glass rudders. Anyone ever modified the 18 epo rudders to fit the 16? Best Branson |

The rudder blades are the same, but the mounting holes a different. You will have to fill the holes the 18 blades and drill new holes for the h16 castings. |

Other than a few bits and pieces, the 16 and 18 do not share many parts. Probably the only significant ones are the rudders. |
