I have a 1971 16 with an original, all aluminum mast. If i take it to an authorized hobie dealer to have in converted to comp tip, it is free right, Because the masts were recalled by hobie? I would just have to pay labor?

Is this correct?? :shock:

Please consider buffing out the boat before you paint it. Look for a "you tube" video on it.

Painted boats suck.
