I'm still having a heck of a time finding the lower triple block for my hobie 16. Does anyone have an opinion on aftermarket ones? I need the lowest price possible without buying something that's guaranteed to break... and if anyone has upgraded to a smaller block system and is willing to sell their used one, please let me know. thanks, willy

ok before I go for this purchase do I need the becket or will it get in the way? I'm a complete newbie on this, I'm really only capable to crew larger boats and manning the winches when told to do so.

No becket on the 194. There is a dead eye / padeye that the line ties to just above the jaws.

guys? gals? I've searched the hobie website and I still can't find an h194. Any tips? It's now between a $240 or $100 for performance or for an aftermarket. If anyone knows anything, please let me know. I want to get out on the water.

Call your dealer on the phone. If they don't have it in stock they will order it from Hobie Cat Co. You can pick it up in person or have it shipped to your house. Easy but you have to call on the phone

thanks a bundle. my closest dealership (san diego) is checking it out for me. is it supposed to have a becket or no? I have found no responses to the viadana brand out of texas. does anyone have any feedback on them? it's half the price, but they have no reviews.
