I tried to buy a Hobie Skipper's harness about a month ago, and called the dealer today when the harness still hadn't arrived. They told me the harness has been discontinued by Hobie Cat. Why would the skipper's harness be discontinued, and why wouldn't it have been removed from the sailing accessories catalog prior to publication? Is there a new model of the harness coming out, or is Hobie just not going to make the bucket style harnesses anymore?

Thanks Matt, hopefully they're back in stock soon, my old/current Hobie harness is 1980's vintage and in rough shape. Got tired of putting up with it, lol. Any word on the new colors yet? Or is it under wraps?
