I bought an 83 H16 a few months ago and the seller also gave me a brand new set of coated trapeze wires that he thought were for the 16. Well I put them on and they are to long. 19'8" is what they are. I am going to sell them but I cant find a boat that takes this length? I even called Hobie. They said maybe the 18/21 cruiser sport or 18sx. Does anyone know what takes this length of trap wire? I measured from end to end. Appreciate any help.

You can cut the wire at the top and swage for a length to fit the 16 or anything shorter.

The closest match I see is the H18 SX listed at 19'-5" trap wire length in the Hobie wire guide.
