It was 8 hours worth of driving but she's home now. I just bought a 1990 Hobie 16 with trailer. Now it's time to do some fixing up.

First I must fix the broken mast foot on the font crossbar. The steplink bolt holes are broken out.
Next it will be a small hole repair in the fiberglass, then some better sails. Can you believe I have Mylar sails with all the Mylar peeled off of them! I will take them for a sail and see what happens.

Let the fun begin!

Mylar sails? Pretty cool! The originals will serve ya better. You can check the age of mylar sails much like counting the rings on a tree, only by counting the holes in the sail! lol jk. Good luck with the new hobie I'm jealous.
