I got a new trampoline! It is long overdue, since my existing one is original to my '79 boat and has no hiking straps left and a hole thru it where a 3" branch punctured it during a huge storm on 4th of July last year. I also got a racing watch, and some new main sail batten ends. |

I got a sweet Hobie pocket tee. Stocked to wear it out on the water! |

What you missed is the enthusiastic "New!" on the cover. Perhaps they mean 2090's?  The book is still better than this one from 1968  But seriously, if you know about any newer books, please share. |

For Christmas I got a bunch of Hobie shirts, trampoline bag, and some Hobie beer coozies. Fun, Family, a little racing, good food with friends and new friends. My best Christmas gift is the knowledge that I'll be sailing with my buddies again in 90 days

The Reg White one is cool - wish I had it (and I have to admit to owning a copy of Rick's book, too - but I bought it more years ago that I care to remember). Oddly, it's much easier to make a video now than write/print/distribute a book. E-books don't do this topic justice. There's never been any real money in doing a book like that since . . . well, the 90s. That's why you don't see any newer ones. |
