| Post subject: | Hobie Cat Sails |
Hey Everybody, I am looking at purchasing used sails. I have found a jib and main set for 250.00,which includes the boom for the mail sail and a sail bag. One of the batton is missing the plastic support on both sides. I am going to take a look at the sails on Monday. Here are some images of the sails. Any suggestions would be great http://s200.photobucket.com/user/Racine ... sort=3&o=0 http://s200.photobucket.com/user/Racine ... sort=3&o=1 http://s200.photobucket.com/user/Racine ... sort=3&o=2 http://s200.photobucket.com/user/Racine ... sort=3&o=3 http://s200.photobucket.com/user/Racine ... sort=3&o=0 http://s200.photobucket.com/user/Racine ... sort=3&o=1 |

Those sails look fantastic, I'd buy them for $250 without the boom. Does it come with the battens? Batten pockets are cheap and you can get them for about $3/piece. http://www.saltydogmarine.com/product_i ... ts_id=3657 |

It does. Had a deal with the guy, but sold them to another person that offered him double the money. Does anyone know of any sail shops in the Wisconsin or Minnesota area? |

Sorry to hear that, kenkovac. I went through the same ordeal. You're not the first or last. Its amazing to me, and I mean AMAZING, that people buy USED Hobie gear for the price they do. Its as though some people have too much spare time/money and feel a need to "collect" Hobie paraphernalia just "because". That or Ebay sailors reselling used hobie gear for almost new prices (give me a (censored) break!) And if you're one of "those people" reading this... -Let the new Hobie sailors catch a break/deal so the sport can live on for gods sake! Anyways... Good luck and rant off. If I come by any used sails for cheap, you'll be the first to know. |
