I recently saw a photo of a new gaff or lanteen rigged copy of a Hobie TI. It looks to be a tenth of the price.

I want to ask them for a quote for one with a slightly taller mast and an optional built in GoPro Camera mount!!

But I am suspicious of their advertising photos...

I can't figure out how their Mirage Drive works...

It's got a hole in the hull. Stick your feet in there and paddle a la Flintstone. It's called the Twinkle Toes Drive.

Hey Gringo
Notice the Bow Sprit. With a bit of spit and polish, it seems perfect for a Spanker or a Nice huge Gennaker.
However, I'm a tad disappointed, there does not seem to be a plug in for an ipod.

Thanks for sharing that m8, :wink:
