Richard, why the wings? Trapeze and hiking gear is more fun than laying on the "couch"...

The Tiger is their fastest "new" offering and is 18'.

Poodle, that brings back fond memories :D I remember pitch polling in the Georgia Strait, (SERIOUS BIG WATER :eek: ) about 40 knot winds, massive waves, etc etc etc. I just went (with another) about 20' through the air like a bug in a giant sailboat disaster.

Man was that fun :D

What caused it was a buddie (after the boat was set-up PERFECTLY) leaned in to get his beer that was jammed in the trampoline. That COG difference, at that speed, caused it all. What a riot.

Did I mention it was midnight, high tide and a harvest moon? It doesn't get any better than that. Makes me wonder WHY am I still here?

LOVE the Hobies :yes:
