You are in for a treat. I just upgraded to a new h16 from an '86, and what a world of difference... From the new sails to the rudder system... Life is good! |

I'm moving up from a '75, I did however pay to keep the sail #s (The things we do for sentimental value) |

Post subject: | 2004 Hobie 16 - worlds boat |
Speaking of new boats: Has anyone purchased a 2004 Hobie 16 - worlds boat? With a trailer and the complete/standard setup, what would be a reasonable price? The dealer wanted 10k last fall but has lowered the price to $9,500. That seems a bit much for a boat (#56) that has sat outside for 1 year and is slightly used (rough rudders, slightly worn hulls). Would one be better just ordering a new Hobie 16? Do the dealers have a few dollars to play with in terms of accepting a lower offer? Thanks for your help... Jefferson |

I paid $7,000 without a trailer. The dealer I used wanted more boats out there and isn't making much profit on the boats. It is worth every penny!!! If anyone is looking for a pre-owned H 16 in Southern Jersey let me know. I'll be posting it in the classified section next week. |

Well, I picked up the boat on Sat as planned, It is sooooooo nice!!! Man the rigging upgrades from the older boat, makes the purchase worthwhile! The H-20 tiller style connectors are great, the rudder sysem has no slop in it whatsoever. The rudder cams work like they should Brand new cripsy sails, Now the only problem was... THERE WANSN'T ANY WIND HERE IN SAN DIEGO THIS WEEKEND!!!! Nextweekend will be racing on Lake Arrowhead, so I will have pictures then. Brent |

Well the Lake Arrowhead regatta, was a dissapointment! There wasn't very much wind, and it was clocking 360 around the lake. Very strange, once I even was in irons on a complete circle.. It was VERY frustrating! The following weekend at Big Bear was allot more fun, The new boat certainly moves! I will post pictures on my .mac site as soon as I get them! Brent |
