Check out the custom Square-top Coca-Cola sails on what looks like a Hobe 18.

Is it just me, or is the foot of that sail really short? I wonder if it isn't a Tiger sail graphic'd up.

Karl,

I noticed the same thing, but didn't make the connection to the Tiger.

Most likely it is a Hobie18SX w/o wings .... the front crossbar is curved and I think I can see "hull lips" on the hulls in the video ... neither feature is on a Hobie Tiger ....

I guess we must put a "Shout Out" to Matt Miller ...

Hey Matt, could you hoist (and sail) a H18Tiger mainsail or FX-One mainsail on a H18SX stick????

One of our engineers cut down a Tiger main for his 18SX. Yes it would work.

I think these sails may be simply custom designed for the advertisements.
