Game-changer. The Hobie 16 was unleashed on the Southern California beach scene in 1970, forever broadening the worldÂ’s concept of a sailboat. Now, over forty years later, this 1997 Sailboat Hall of Fame inductee continually attracts great sailors and delivers big-grin rides worldwide. Why? Because the Hobie 16 is the perfect multi-hull, powerful enough for world champions yet forgiving enough for novices. Its dual-trapeze rig lets you and your crewmember harness its raw power, and its asymmetrically shaped fiberglass hulls reduce weight and provide lift. Fly a hull, and the obsession begins!
