It's time to hype this up again! We just released more tickets for the general public.

We are currently gearing up for the Hobie 16/20 National Championships in Alameda California. It will be held the end of July and early August in the beautiful East San Francisco Bay. We expect a large turnout and hope you can make it!

We are raffling a brand new Hobie 16 in support of the Legal Assistance for Seniors of Alameda County.
Legal Assistance for Seniors (LAS) is a non-profit agency serving Alameda County residents who are 60 years of age and older.

They provide legal advice and information, representation in court and administrative hearings, referrals to other community resources, and community education and training on legal issues.

This H16 will be sailed in the event by Armando Noriega Jr and will come with a personalized tune up seminar.

To purchase tickets in support of LAS, please contact me via email, or purchase online at www.hobie16nationals.com

Only 500 tickets will be sold. Cost is $25 per ticket or 5 for $100. We just released another lot of tickets to the general public and they will go fast!

Winner must pay California sales tax and will be responsible for picking up the boat from Alameda (i.e. get your friends to double stack it home for you).

Hope you can make it to the regatta!

Bummer, I'll check with the Hesses. Please contact me directly if there are any discrepancies so I have a record of our communications. Thanks!

Hey Chris, I will trade you my FX + a little dough for the raffle 16 if you win. It's a 2005 in great condition. Needs a new spin. I might advertise it soon. I've got to rotate stock!

Thanks for your patience on the tickets. Our volunteer workforce is doing the best that it can. You know how regattas are put together, shoestring and overworked volunteers:)

Only 500 tickets will be sold!

As long as I can afford the 'little dough', its a deal. I lose my 20 crew in a few years and REALLY like that FX boat, so when I win, we'll do it.

How many left total? Hows my FX/One? Keep her clean, and we'll get it picked up as soon as I get you the 16 back from the charter guy.

FX is good! Here's the colors. No spin on the raffle boat though.

Very sharp. Especially with the spin being red as well. I'll have to get a spinnaker when I win it.
