Post subject: | Timeline of boat changes. |
I searched and didn't come up with much. Is there a timeline that lines out what changes Hobie made to the 16 over the years? In particular things like mast base/ step shroud length/ mast rake etc rudder design boat weight Integrated vs the stainless riveted track for main and jib cars I think you get the idea. I am not after rigging upgrades per say as one could go on forever with changes and upgrades to jib cars and sheet blocks etc. |

I have done tons of research on the history of the H16. I do not believe that such a timeline exists. However, I am sure someone on the forum has the necessary knowledge to compile a timeline. Knowing all of what has been changed would certainly help someone like myself decide which aspects of my old boat would be worth modernizing. |

Unfortunately, that page is a little too vague for what these guys are looking for - and it had a few errors that I've corrected now. I could put something together, but it would only be a rough approximation in some cases. Plus, you have to consider that a 30 or 40 year old boat is not going to have all its original parts. However, you've given me an idea for a Hotline article . . . |
