A coworker pulled a Hobie 14 turbo out of a dumpster years ago. I think he put under $100 into it and has been sailing since. I will see if I can borrow the jib to measure it.

Bob Curry may know, or contact Sabre Sails in Flordia.

Thanks, Doug!

I may not be able to measure a sail this week, but I have some brand new jibs that I had made last year. I got them from Chip Buck at Whirlwind Sails. I paid $225 each for them, and I would really just like to get that back out. I got a great price because I ordered a bunch for several people.

The only colors I have left are white and yellow.

Dan
