Sail Colors!

Just got my first boat (of any kind) from my girlfriend as a birthday present. I have a lot to learn.

Anyway, my boat is proudly supporting #37 Tequila Sunrise!

I've got #85, Nationals White (Prism). My boat is also an '85...wonder if my sails are actually 25 years old??

i have '81 #53 Cat Fever Nationals on the original blue '81 hulls. hulls only look blue when wet now though. sails don't look all to faded. there are about 3 holes in the main sail i need to fix. is there any way to safely make the hulls blue again?

No "full sail" pics yet, but here is one with my son that shows most of the sails.

Just bought my h16. My sails are #111 Oasis. Im just guessing by the attachment provided, its a 1989 boat. Sails are pretty nice, no rips, just standard wear.

http://www.hobiecat.com/support/warranty/sailserial.html check your serial number on the back of your hulls for the year manufactured, according to the page above

Hmmm lemme see ...

White 16 Blue Streak
Blue 18 Cat Fever
Yellow 18 Nationals Yellow (prism)
White 17 Not Shown (a combination of the Teal in the middle and the Raspberry around the outside)
White 17 White
White 17 Worlds Sail Graphics
White 21 White mylar, Pentex

For me the Cat Fever is the sail pattern that says "Hobie Cat" across the bay and is still my favourite.

I've got the 1982 #59 Orange (no-name) boat.

1985 #88. Thanks for the link!!! I was wondering what year that mongrel of a barge was. Then again, maybe the hulls are much older than the sails.
