I am buying a used 1983 Hobie 18 with SX wings this week. :D I live in Roswell, GA (N suburb of Atlanta) and am having trouble locating a Hobie dealer close buy. I did the dealer search on the Hobie site and the closest dealer is in Nashville, TN which is 6 hrs drive. If I can't find a local dealer are there any online dealers for parts that are recommended?

I know I will need a new plastic bushing for the mast base and some SX wing tramps and other misc parts to get her going again.

Most dealers will do email orders, phone orders and some have online ordering. Best to deal with the closer dealer if possible to create a relationship... in case you need something worth the 6 hour drive someday!

Contact the nearest dealer and if you are outside a certain range(250 miles I think) Hobie will drop ship the parts directly to you. Sunjammers in PCB, Fl is awesome. Also the Big Noodle Shop out of CO and The sailboat Shop in Austin. These are all dealers that I have used with great success.
