I just purchased a 1987? Hobie 16 that has "hobie 16 nationals" on the side. According to the gentleman this was a boat prepared for the Nationals and he purchased it at the end of the competition. The hull number is CCMB4366H788.. Do you know how I might be able to find out more information on this? Is there a way to find out how many there were? Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated. 530-228-6638. He said the race was Coyote point San Francisco. |

Yes. 1987 at Coyote Pt. HOBIE 16 U.S. NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA SEPTEMBER 13-19, 1987 Was 48 boats. Hotline Magazine from January 1988. https://cdn.hobiecat.com/digital_assets/HotLine_1988_01.pdf Page 36 / Renfro Blows Through San Francisco It was a very close series, but a new champ was crowned. |

Thank you very much! I was curious, the Sails number was 91041. Is there anyway to find out who raced the boat and how they did? Thanks again Barry |

These events are special in that we supplied the boats. Skippers are assigned a different boat for each race, so it was sailed by a lot of different teams. I doubt any of those records still exist... as to which boats were sailed by who. Only results for races possibly... unrelated to the sail numbers used. |

Those were some really cool looking sails. I wish all of the old sail colors schemes were still available. |
