Here is some footage of my recent 8 day sail/camp around the Whitsunday Islands in Queensland, Australia. Perfect sailing grounds for a Hobie 16

Just fantastic!

The dive into the mainsail at 4:10 of the video surprised me! No damage?

Thanks for sharing.

I've personally done the same dive into the mainsail during a capsize. Doesn't damage it at all.

Best part? I was screaming at my crew "Don't hit the mainsail!" then, I face planted right into it. My friends laughed at me for that one for a long time.
