So I remember reading the info on having H16 Jib sails cut down, but i couldnt find the thread, and first of all, I'm gonna need the dimensions if anyone has them (email: [email protected]).

Also, since none of the local sailmaker shops are reachable by phone.... I was wondering if someone could tell me the approximate cost of recutting that H16 jib sail to a H14 jib. Im a cheap college student. And i think I've spent 50% of my income on Hobies in the last two years.

Sigh. I should just sell everything else and get one of those Hobie mirage adventure island things. they look easy.

I'll agree with you there... Hobie parts (and sailboat parts in general) are too expensive. I can think of about a dozen people who would be into it if they could afford it. I can't really afford it, so I look for other ways to come about boats and boat parts. I just scored an almost complete 18 parts boat for free, and I'm going to use the parts to complete the 17 I just bought last week. No way I could afford to buy the parts in the "normal" used market, and especially not new.

With that said... check out this link: http://www.hobiecat.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=4258
