Post subject:  No support from Hobie for Tiger

We were at the North American F18 event in Florida last week and needed a new Tiger main. Both Capricorn and Nacra had sent mains, spins and poles to the event host but Hobie hadn’t sent any Tiger parts. To make it worse, when i called Hobie in California to overnight a new sail and the response was sorry, no sails in North America for another 13 weeks!!!????
So is Hobie NA really interested is supporting the Tiger?
:(

Yes, we support the Tiger.

Its not that we don't support the boat... We have a container of boats and parts due that has been in process for a long time. We ran out of mains I am told. That container will be here shortly.

The local dealer would have been the one to order parts for the event... as they did Nacra parts.

Simply another data point;

I had my first insurance claim for a boat a couple of weeks ago.

The parts were called into Hobie on a Friday.

On Monday, I called my dealer to make some changes to the order.
The factory sent a runner out to find the order, he came back and said that it had already been processes, picked, and had left the factory.
Damn :wink:
