BY Carol McHenry Fleet #85 - Columbus. Ohio Why race a sailboat? To win, of course! True, but the primary purpose in racing sailboats is enjoyment. albeit the enjoyment is enhanced when we finish at the front of the pack. Sailors are a peculiar lot. You can see them, beers in hand, joking and ribbing each other. laughing loudly on shore. the best of friends. Ah... but see and hear some of them on the race course and you know beneath those benign expressions of bliss, tigers turn in their tanks! Every last one of them will deny it, too. "Sailing is a gentlemanly sport." Those gentle souls have been known to scream... "take it up", "no room for bargers", "buoy room, my eye", "no overlap, you turkey", etc. Moral: Racing skippers should use the rules for all they are worth. with reasonable control. Most all racing sailors have read the rules many times, but this doesn't make it a cinch to decide what's right on the race course while going full tilt on a Hobie Cat! Some of the rules are fundamental, but others are very complicated with exceptions and special situations. As you begin to recognize and suspicion rule violations during a race, especially if you have doubts in your mind, why not avoidprotestinguntil you havegone home and quietly hit the rule book again. Next time you will be sure of the facts and can present a well-defined protest. Protesting too oftenand too quickly takes theenjoyment out of racing. It gives the idea that you shoot from the hip and starts to affect the attitudes of those around you. Using the rules to your advantage is part of the sport. Knowledge of the rules can help you stay out of protest situations... Ithe old "Ican'tdothat"instead of"whatthe helldoes he think he's doing?"). Racing is competitive obviously-a chance to excel and win, but it should still be enjoyable when you place down the list a bit. If winning the race becomes a matterof suchgreat importancethat you develop ulcers on the way around the course, it's time to stop-take stock and ask: Why race a sailboat? *The Hobie Forum" offers the opportunity for our readers to express and exchange their views on subjects of interest to members of the Hobie Class Association.

Enioyl Cece Hardwicke Monte Sereno, CA DEAR CECE: We were expecting a bit more technical advice, but I suppose quite a few of the hull raisers out there are flying by the seat of their pants (so to speak). Ed Dear Dr. Conger: I am 53 years old, weigh 255 lbs., sail a Hobie 16 and find it rather easy and exciting to fly a hull. With the weight I carry I require considerable wind to be able to fly a hull, 1 start with the traveler at mid position on the track, let the main sheet out some, get the cat going at a good clip, then start drawing in the main sheet until I feel the windward hull getting light or starting to lift. I continue to bring in the main sheet, in tight or until the hull is actually out of the water then hold it... you can feel it in your hands and in your body, and hear the hum in the rigging. It just all falls together. Should the wind be somewhat light, try finding a point of sail that will give you a better advantage, possibly a beam reach. Do watch out for the lee bow, do not let it dig: This can be controlled by leaning out and back on the stern end of the tramp. I assume that your crew will be handling the jib properly. This may not be what a Class A sailor would do, I found out it works for me quite by accident. Hope it works for you. I've only been sailing a Hobie for two seasons and it's keeping me in the air... Good Luck, Lou Lopez Chateaugay, NY SKIING A HOBIE IS NO NEW CRAZE Dear Ed: Billy Kidd's downhill beat in a Hobie Cat ( June '76 the 036issue of 036 Hot Line ) is no new craze . For promoting the Utah Ski Yachting, Dave Albrand, winner of our 1975 competition, tried the slopes of Snowbird and pictures were printed in the july 1975 issue. We hope Billy Kidd will join us in April 1977 for next year's Championship competition. Cold sailing, Uli Holland Salt Lake City, Utah DEAR ULI: Billy will be seeing your invitation as soon as this issue hits the slopes in his area. Fair warning to you, though, Billy's been putting In some impressive sailing in these partsI'd say that the challenge is on! Could be we'll need a Snow Regatta Schedule next year... Ed PROTECTION AGAINST CORROSION BOOM/SAIL BOX Dear Ed: I would like to build a boom/sail box for my Hobie 16' trailer. I'd appreciate some hints, I'm sure that I am not alone. Thanks, Brian Van Camp Sacramento, CA DEAR BRIAN: Marine plywood will suit your purpose best, make sure you seal it properly with resin or varnish. Plan for plenty of room so that you don't have to stack wet items next to each other and invite mildew problems. You might experiment with the lid closing capabilities, so that part of the box is accessible when the boat is loaded on the trailer. Look into the commercial boxes available, they may save you lots of trouble and even some money. Ed Dear Ed: Like a lot of Hobie owners, I have to keep my 16' outside. It has been three years now that it has been sitting in the sun, smog and rain. The net effect has been corrosion on the castings. I would like to know what Coast Catamaran uses as a varnish at the factory. Also how to apply it so it doesn't look like an amateur painted it on top of the old varnish. Sincerely, Greg Zimmerman West Covina, CA DEAR GREG: Only the rudder castings on Hobles are lacquered to protect against corrosion. All other susceptible parts are anodized at the factory. If corrosion is present, the protective iayering (whether it is lacquer or anodization) has been permeated and must be completely stripped and resealed. Stripping can be accomplished with steel wool and lots of dedicated, careful labor. if you wish to relacquer use #1700 Marine Coating in a 3:1 solution and apply in thin layers with a sprayer. Your best protection will result from reanodizing but this runs into the money.

To the veteran, it's a race and a half. To spectators, it's CRAZY. No matter what it seemed to anyone, this year's 2nd Annual Inland Transpac was among the finest races sailed by many since Hobie gave up surfing. The San Francisco Bay waters reach inland from the Golden Gate Bridge with fingers extending to the Sacramento River. This Sea Trek becomes a six-hour mission to find Rio Vista at the mouth of the river in timeto prevent bladder explosions and famine among the racers. Even though most people carried provisions on board, it became apparent after a few hours that biology carries on... Registration brought daredevil sailors from as far awayas Carson City, Nevada. Each entrant received Transpac visors, designed by Bob Guletz, course charts and cautions from race committee chairman Jack Baker about the hazards of long distance racing in San Francisco Bay. Launching off the beach into chilly bay waters, the boats were started in reverse order beginning with the 14's (a good idea con. sidering the best 14-A boat finished 30th overall ). Tom Dost and Mike Douglas provided the committee boat de'elegance in the form of the new Warrior 29, a sleek and racy catamaran perfect for marching around bay waters. With a frowning sky blowing down a 1518 mile per hour breeze, the boats started a close hauled sprint to the north for the first leg of the "many·legged monster". The Coast Guard Auxiliary sent along a crash boat of more than ample size but no one needed its aid at any time during the race. John Beery's Yacht Sales sent along a beautiful 30·foot Sea Ray with Mr. Beery personally attending. Beery's also sponsored the fleet and provided many of the amenities for the race. After the initial windward leg of some six to eight fast miles; the fleet turned easterly and began a multiple series of downwind tactics. As it turned out, the "downwind tackers" walked away from the fleet, leaving far behind those boats short-sighted enough to believe it is possible to run 50 miles and win. At about the halfway point in the race, Jeff Canepa, on a 16', began his eventual conquest of the race by pulling away from the lead boats. Don Weineke, no small-time-puddle-jumper, managed to retain his position right behind first place for the rest of the race. Later down the course near the Martinez Bridge, Bob Nelson and his "allStarr" crew took over 3rd position and finished in that spot; much to the displeasure of this author who finished in 4th position overall. Sailing on the petered-out edge of the back wash from Hurricane Kathleen, the fleet was spared the fury of the first Transpac's finish which broke both boats and spirits over two years ago. Trophies were presented to almost two·thirds of the entrants because of the fiscally wise Fleet • 87 member, Jon Trebotich. He had been given a very limited budget and instructions to produce as many trophies as he could. Not only did he come up with fortrone wall plaques in the shape of San Francisco Bay, but he gave change from the allotted money. A good man to have around. First place in 14.B's went to Jack Spottswood of Santa Cruz, California. First place in 14-A's was Don Snyder also of Santa Cruz. First place in 16-Cs waswon byHapMaguireofVacaville, California. First place in 1 GB's went to last year's worst skipper and avid reader of "How To... " books, this writer. First overall and in the A-Fleet was Jeff Canepa driving a white 16' that most of the fleet thought was a puff of smoke. Instead of breaking out the Coleman stoves and beans for dinner, the racers were treated to "Belt-Buster" hamburgers and trimmings provided by Fleet *87's choice in after-race restaurants, The Point in Rio Vista. The Transpac had created voracious appetites and 150 people took part in the destruction of 100 more hamburgers than we had pre-ordered. Fortunately, foresight is part of The Point's menu and they had grub-staked enough to feed the weathered mob without a hitch. Even though the logistic hassle of getting car and trailer from Albany to Rio Vista at times seemed insurmountable, a1166entrants and crews vowed to return next year to take on northern Califor· nia's toughest race.

The event was run on an 815 meter bearn reach course spanning the smooth, flat waters of Los Angeles larbor's famous "Hurricane Gulch"; boats were separated into two livisions (over and under 20 feet), with contestants running,the :ourse in 30·second inteivals. It was an exciting afternoon for ailors and spectators alike-and although the conditions lid not allow this year's candidates a chance to break the xisting world speed·record of 31.09 knots, the Hobie Team vas indeed stoked when Bob Seaman on his Hobie Cat 16 shot hrough the course at 21.52 knots to claim the honor offastestboat inder 20 feet, based bn uncorrected time. On Saturday and Sunday, for the around·the-buoys competition, he fleet swelled to 80 entries, representing all the major catamaran tames, including Wildwind,.Warrior, Dart, Hobie, Tornado,· tindle, Nacra 5.2, Sol Cat, Sea Spray and the hew PMA : development class, the 18 sq. meter. Three races were held on Saturday and two on Sunday in winds of 20 knots. Among the 53 entries in the Division 2 fleet (under 20 feet), the Hobie Cat 16's and the slightly larger Nacra'5.2's led'the pack all the way, with final finish positions alternating between the two. Skip Elliot, skippering a Nacra, sailed an excellent series with no mistakes to take first place honors, with Bob Seaman's Hobie 16 right behind him in second; third place went to a Macra, fourth and fifth to Hobie 16's, sixth to a Macra. a seventh to a Hobie 16. In the Division 1 fleet (20 feet and over), "Aquarius V'-the famous "C' cat that brought the "Little America's Cup" back td the U.S.-proved to be the fastest entry, dueling with her sistership, 'Taku 11", for line honord in every race. / In the Division 1 fleet.

"The Can Cat " BEER CAN HOBIE CAT C 2 . Z ...44d'i C ;. .. i -04 No, not a beer can regatta, a beer can boat... 2000 beer cans as a matter of fact, collected over a 10-month period by Martha Kringle and .Evelyn Duthie of Westport, Connecticut. They sealed the openings with aluminum tape and then glued the mini-flotation chambers together with silicone rubber adhesive in the familiar form of two asymmetrical hulls. Hobie rigging was donated by Sailing Systems, Inc. The project was conceived as part of an annual Westport ecological program which designates a local island or beach for major clean-up. The "Can Cat" weighed in at a competitive dry weight of 420 pounds, with an official recycle value of $8.43, rig not included. "The Great Race" was staged pitting her against an Aqua Cat on a 2,5 mile course. Skipper George Kringle aggressively maneuvered her through the race at clocked speeds up to four knots. Results are still, and may always be, under study by the Race and Handicap Committees. Guam Hobie Fleet on Road to Recovery After Typhoon Disaster Prior to the end of May, Hobie 16's were becoming one of the most popular classes on Guam with many new members swelling the ranks. Then on Thursday, the 20th of May. Typhoon Pamela hit Guam with winds gusting to 150 miles per hour. "Pamela" was one of the worst catastrophes on record to affect Guam. The local Yacht Club, of which Hobie Fleet #75 is a part, was almost totally destroyed. Unfortunately, the Hobie 16's were one of the hardest hit classes. Normally when Guam is placed into "typhoon condition" most of the boats are lashed between trees near the club site in a "safe" area. However, during this Super-Typhoon, these trees were nearly all uprooted turning the assumed safe area into a region of devastation. It took chain saws and hours of man power to cIear the area of debris. Even though the mark of Super-Typhoon Pamela is still evident, enthusiasm within the local fleet is inspiring. They readied as many boats as they could repair and staged the first-race of their next series on july 25th. Commodore Robert Heron writes, "For a while we will not have the same number of competitors as before, but as parts arrive on the island for the damaged boats, present indications show that before the completion of this series the Fleet will be bigger and better than ever." How's that for true H8bie spirit? Al . W Z : = m . CO -4 > CO 0 F. 0 E 1bvio• 1:o,A,/• 4... . - ..... / N'. ' , ....1 I ,r / . .... .,: .- . +'.:hl..

Cape Hatteras Race meet on the dance floor in front of a huge hul-Oying mural. am".ME'*IR,:.........../.-. Mike and Chris Worrell keep their Hobie 16 on the beach not far from their combination lounge, restaurant and discotheque in Virginia Beach, Virginia, but they never completely leave behind the thrill of catamaran sailing in the Atlantic surf. There on the walls of Worrell Bros., just across the street from the boardwalk at 1910 Atlantic Avenue, is a complete Hobie 16-hulis in the dining room; mast mainsail, boom and rigging in the lounge. The jib is hung over the bar. Local boys who grew up workirig summers on the Beach Patrol, Mike, 32, and Chris, 31, opened the Atlantic Avenue location in 1968. The business was then known as Joe's Fish Market and beer was the specialty of the house. In 1975, with a license to serve mixed drinks in hand, they decided to change the name and the image of their business. The Hobie Cat motif came naturally. It reflected what for Chris is a hobby, and what for Mike-who does things like organize and win 1000 mile ocean races for Hobie Cats-is an obsession. "You can't say we planned it this way," Mike explains. "We just kind of fell into it." First something was needed to go over the bar... so, up went thejib. Then the brothers bought a new Hobie 16 and their trusty, old cat was disassembled and given a place of honor on the walls. The mast, once stored up on the roof during winters, came down to be placed in the lounge. Then other things were added: Hobie Cat posters here and there, a floor·toceiling blow·up mural by the dance floor of Mike and a crew. man riding high on one hull. And there are numerous photographs taken from the boardwalk while Mike put his Hobie 16through acrobatic paces in rough, white water. A white torpedo buoy which once marked a sunken anti·erosion fence, pulled loose from its mooring during a storrn. Mike, who had sailed around that buoy so many times that he came to regard it as an An I 0 -- ·:«R==Tr- + -...-... -..-. :...4.:.,JLLAA.-' b -" ' -_11 • ./t C 7441'-'- - · -' 1- ·11 1 1-- %·Z:z. r:.-#*..-I:• .1 036 . .. -tib':1.244,58,T Some of the disco crowd enjoying Hobie atmosphere. . --... :·'hi-J.. 3.=17 ....1, '.3 " ., .. : .1 1, .' .

Florida, to Virginia Beach (yes, that's 1000 miles) last Spring is marked on a series of charts which are rriounted on the walls. The last chart records remarkable Hobie Cat seamanship: 200 miles in 22 non-stop hours... the lastleg of the trek. That'swhatwasdemanded ofivlike and crewman Geny Beatson to beat out Peter Guthrie, a 37year old airline pilot and his crew, Allen Kramer. Five Hobie 16s started that race, but only two made it past the Myrtle Beach, South Carolina arda and finally, it was down to a two-boat race up the North Carolina coast Guthrie, who had boasted good-naturedly that he would be sitting in the Worrell Bros. bar when Mike came ashore, had succumbed to \,fa®ess at Nags Head a few hours before. So die Hobie Cat motif at the Worrell Bros. is not the brainchild of some interior decorator. It is an extension of the lives and personalities of the men who run the place. Waiters wear shorts, deck shoes and T·shirts bearing the Worrell Bros. logo or marked "crew". Customers dress casually and it's hot uncommon to see someone, often Mike or Chris, standing at the bar in a dripping wetsuit and trapeze harness. WeII-known as a favorite meeting place for fun-loving singles, Worrell Bros. offers excellent food for lunch and dinner and the dancing starts about 9:00 p.m. There is always good conversation for those who want to talk about sailing, for those who live vicariously and fot those who don't care about sailing at all. it's apparent that the Hobie Cat has become a symbol of success for Mike and Chris Worrell. They try not to take it too seriously. Behind the bar is a photo of Mike and the Worrell Bros. Hobie. And under it is a brass plague engraved with this message: "The difference between men and boys is the price of their toys." Al .. + .. :7• . /.

A CAT GOES FISHING By Don Fowler Fleet #111, Jacksonville, Florida Palatka, Florida, starting point for the 23rd Annual Mug Race from Palatka to the Rudder Club in Iacksonville. Billed as the "World's Longest River Sailing Regatta". the course spans 42 , miles of the St. Johns River. My name is Don Fowler, my crew is Nancy Sabbag, and my boat, Sunshine. Skippers meeting, 7:30 a.m. Murky skies with north winds at 10 knots. Forecast mostly cloudy, chance of thundershowers and winds to 25 knots. We received our instructions from the Coast Guard Auxiliary Commander and prepared for a 42-mile t t 1 1. 1 1 1 l 11 / "' L.i -il i.

Thirty-five Hobie 16's, seven 14's and over a hundred other boats ranging from small monohulls to 35-foot cruisers accepted the challenge. Nancy and I missed the 9:00 start by about 15 seconds and had to fight dirty air for the first 30 minutes. Then, we broke free, started to double trap and began picking off boats one by one. By noon we had covered about 25 miles, but fatigue was taking its toll. We missed a tack, Nancy lost her footing and went forward, and we pitchpoled. We got "Sunshine" up and underway easily enough but somehow lost the inspection portal cover on the port hull. After stuffing my life jacket in the hole. - we tried to find-a place to beach the boat. No chance. the east bank was all marsh and cypress trees. We started across the three miles to the west bank but the port hull flooded and sank about 500 yards off shore. A Coast Guard AuxiliaryRescue boat came to our aid in about 30 minutes and towed the capsized Hobie to shallow water. We pumped out the hull, taped the hole and assayed the damage. One rudder gudgeon broken, cooler with six sandwiches and ten beers gone, and a small tear in the jib. After thanking the Coast Guard crew and beaching the Hobie, we had a decision to make: walk to the highway and hitch a ride back to Palatka or sail downwind with one rudder. After much persuasion and my promises that nothing more could go wrong, Nancy and I boarded and headed back up river. At any other time, sailing a 25-mile reach in 20 knot winds would be something you dream about, but now I was apprehensive. With only one rudder and a taped up hole in my deck, I did not want any more mishaps. We swiftly passed the stragglers at the rear of the fleet and soon had the dark churning river all to ourselves. Suddenly, as we were knifing through 3-foot waves with exuberating speed, something slammed into the trampoline. Nancy uttered a startled gasp and I looked around to see what we had hit. I saw it but I didn't believe it. No more drinking all night before a race, I vowed! But I looked again, and it was real. A 5-foot gar fish had lunged right through the lacing and wedged itself securely, with one-third of his length sticking up through our tramp. His 12-inch jaws were snapping fiercely as he vainly tried to free himself. Badly shaken and unable to hold back her tears, Nancy said she just couldn't take anymore. Finding a place to beach was difficult, as jibing would mean having to go over to the starboard near the menacing teeth of the gar. I spotted houses on the shoreline about three miles straight downwind and headed for them. Fortunately, we landed in the yard of Mr. and Mrs. W. C. johnson, akindlycouple who listened to our tale, marveled at our fish, and drove me back to Palatka to get my car. Once we were secure and relaxed at the Rudder Club, finishing point of the race, we immediately captured center stage with our tale of what has to be one of the wildest experiences in all the 23 runnings of the Mug Race! .L "ON THE MARK" AUTOGRAPHED EDITION An original painting by Kipp Soldwedel. one of America's most talented marine artists.

NAMF ADDRESS CITY STATF 71P HOTUNE/NOV-DEC 1976 19 HOBIE 14 NATIONALS CRGII Right where it all started... Home' of the original Hobie Cat factory and scene of the 1976 Hobie 14 Nationals, September 29-October 1. Registration came up with room to spare and no qualifying races were necessary. On Wednesday, winds were light (pretty much the story for the whole series) and practce races were stagedin 34 knots of wind. Seems that the hurricane which wiped out La Pax, Mexico'changed the weather and wind conditions... and not for the better. Unseasonable rainy mornings and quiet, quiet airs remained throughout. A few big swells drifted through for effect, but the scene was genera• unexciting. The welcome party was a bit more liveb'. staged around the pool at the Marina inn. Quite a few locals and a smattering of intemationals dropping by on the way t6 the Worlds got together and shared thoughts and beers. On Thursday the wind was all the way up to 4-6 knots. Six-fot swells looked impressive but seemed to have little effect on the races.' other than providing for some interesting protest meeting material due to sideways action at the leeward mark. Racers were divided in four fleets, with the Imp . top sailors divided among the four to s• d competition. The rest of thesail rs were assigned by draw to the fleets: The races were scheduled i ·· so that at the end of six. each Ileet had raced against each other fleet twice. Friday's three races took the whole day, with several delays for wind shifts. Social events continued low-key, and a record was set for the lowest beer ., consumption ever at a major competition. Sandwiches were available between races from an anchored avon on a.help• yourself basis. The wind came up to 12 knotsoff and on on Saturday, again providing for the best racing during the finals (a little drama for the finish ). The last race saw two of th6 top three skippers heading in for DNFs.

Right! Anyway, that's what we told everyone coming lo the Division 7 Championships at Cheney Reservoir near Wichita, Kansas. We placed our order for a nice, 20-mile-per-hour wind, but mix-ups do happen, and what we received was an average 20 mph wind with speeds from 40 to 45 mph on Friday, to near zero on Sunday. With that kind of variation, you can't say we didn't try to challenge everyone... The boats started drifting in Friday morning with the air calm and the temperature over 100. At mid-afternoon, however, the wind did a 180-degree shift and came blasting from the north with sudden force. Several boats were caught on the waterand turtled. Things were hectic until everyone was pulled ashore. There was an exciting tune-up race in the high winds between two Hobie 14's. Unfortunately, their skippers ( yours truly} were ashore... 1he runaways were captured a hundred yards out by a very large pontoon boat nicknamed the Cast Iron Cat. All were safely beached at last, the sails were lowered and we waited for Saturday. Winds calmed down to a shifty 20 mph on Saturday, but the water was still choppy. Sixty-eight boats had entered from Colorado, Kansas, lowa, Missouri, Oklahoma, Nebraska. and Minnesota land one lone sailor from California ). Between races, beer was tossed to thirsty skippers and crew from the beer boat of Fleet #27. The beer boat was also pleased to hosl Mr. and Mrs. Sheldon Coleman {of the Coleman Company}, for the Saturday morning races. When the results were posted that evening, they showed a surprising trio of victories by the lone California sailor Iwhose name just happened to be H. Alterl. The Coleman Company provided a great barbecue supper Saturday evening. The expected buffalo turned out to be beef and chicken, but we didn't hear any complaints. Sunday was pretty calm. There was just enough wind to get off two races, for a total of five for the weekend. In the middle of the second race the course was shortened and the resulting sigh of relief kicked up just enough wind to finish. Beautiful sculptured Hobie Cats were presented to the winners in all classes. Hobie 16-A fleet: first to Hobie Alter of California, second to Brian Bell of Denver, Colorado, and third to Scott Tursi of Des Moines,.Iowa. The 16-B fleet winner was Dan Sorensen of Belleville and Gunter Weihe of Wichita took first in the 16-C's. The first three finishers in the 14-A fleet were Al DeWees of Colorado, jack Welsh of Oklahoma City, and Gerald Pauls of Wichita, Darrell Moore of Cheney won the 14-B fleet. Steve Barry of Wichita placed first in the Hobie 12's, with the Hobie 10 fleet first to Jim Shon of Des Moines. Since Hobie did so well on his first venture into Prairie Country, he was presented with the First Annual Fleet #27 Buffalo Chip Award. We ajso showed our appreciation to Rich jeffries of Coast Cat for heading up our race and protest committees by giving him the Last Annual Fleet #27 Buffalo Chip Award. Thanks to American Inland Yachts, The Coleman Company, Coast Catamaran and the Ninnescha Yacht Club. .RL- wind yachts present: aisure cure for the --s• ' .>..:a common cold / • -• -(bet» r known as the - • hq,rd water blues) E e.'*......., 036. ... ...

Story and photos contributed by the Prmgles of Hobie Cat Marine, Orillia, Ontario, Canada Eighty-seven Hobie Cats competed in the Canadian Hobie Cat Championships held on Lake Couchiching, Orillia, Ontario on August 21-22. The famous "lake of many winds" challenged the skippers to a test of sailing skill. by dishing up two very hot, sunny "light air" days. Racing was competitive in all fleets, with Hobie skippers coming from all across Ontario, Quebec, Michigan, Ohio and New York. A delicious buffet dinner at Birchmere Hotel followed Saturday's races. Sunday. the light air struggle continued for the first race of the day, and then as a grand finale. the wind picked up and the entire fli,et took off like a group of kids just let out of school. flying hulls across the finish line in perfect style.

HOBIE 16' EUROPEAN NATIONALS Story and photos by Bob Johnson On an extended tour Of Europe. Bob Johnson. a former editor of the Hot Line, just couJdn't resist the opportunity to attend the Nationals in Holland and dip the pen into some Hobie Ink... A true, sincere Dutch welcome was given by Lord Mayor Schols of Den Haag, Holland, who had just been officially baptized, Hobie style, by falling overboard from an Avon Chase Boat during an inspection ride to the Committee Boat in rough seas. The Lord Mayor's appearance was made in a pair of cutoffs and a Hobie sweatshirt. The qualifying races were cancelled due to force eight winds and ten-foot seas. The two-day championship was saijed in one cjass with a start of over 55 boats. Spectator crowds of 0,000 were never more involved than they were in Holland. The Dutch Hobie Cat friends covered a two-mile stretch of beach, enthusiastically carrying Hobies to and from the surf. After a series of close, challenging races, and a long deliberation over a sticky protest, the winners were as follows ( pictured from the bottom of the stairs up}: first place to Marten/Linderman of West Germany, second to Heilbron/Biemond of Netherland, third to Dinsdale/Olenschlager of West Germany, and fourth to Englemann/ Bartelsen also of West Germany. Many European skippers are planning on making the Hawaiian Hoble 16' Worlds, some will make the trip half way around the world in the hope of qualifying. They have strong serious competitive. racing spirit which promises to give the rest of the world a good show.

RETURN FORM TO AM Enterprises 4019 Westerly PI #201 Newport Beach, CA 92660 THE FIRST ANNUAL HALF-TON REGATTA By Jerry Sedars, Commodore, Fleet #10. Clear Lake, Iowa Question: What do you do when your normal racing season is over but you're not quite ready to pack your sails away? Answer: You organize a half-ton regatta. Question: A whaaat??? Answer: A half - ton regatta - a race between Hobie 16 s carrying 1000 pounds of crew. toward the beach again. As the race progressed it became apparent that some crews had "tipped" the scales during the weigh-in. This caused crews on slower boats to use other than legal methods to catch up; including paddles, oars, water balloons... in one instance there was even a boarding party! To spectators it must have looked unbelievable. To the racers it was hilarious! Who won the race? Don Coe from Ventura, Iowa... a real heavyweight. AL Low riders or gang sailing? Just pulling over to fix a flat hull... . The First Annual Fleet #10 Half-Ton Regatta was held at Clear Lake, Iowa at the end of our regular season. Fleet member Nancy Thompson can be credited ( discredited?} with the origin of this event. Perhaps the wine played apart in her first presenting the novel idea. and it most definitely was responsible for her fellow fleeters' susceptibility and consequent falling in to give it a go. The race committee decided upon a Lemans start off an undeveloped beach. Skippers selected their crews, any number of persons could crew on a boat as long as the total weight was 1000 pounds. There was an official weigh-in with a not so scientific bathroom scale and everyone took their starting positions. When the gun sounded, the crews ran to their boats, pushed them off the beach. and climbed aboard. This is when things became exciting! There is a noticeable difference in the way Hobie 16's sail with 1000 pounds of people aboard compared to a more normal crew. If the crew is not positioned correctly, yolir hulls not only submerge, they disappear! The course consisted of a windward mark set about one mile from shore. After the boats rounded the mark they all sailed . :i " ..2... 21 .., 2· .• B,ft .i-". · • 4 \. r• 44.irc -• " - - 't i C.. :. .. + , 0361 /. .. c - - · ....7 1,ff-.-4-7 -M . -. .-... -- - 1 ./ l - r-· INTRODUCING 1 j HOB-NOBS I # (Patent Pending) 1 1 Put new Power in your hands.

I .- on HOT TIPS TECHNICAL INFORMATION ® HOBIE 16' FRONT CROSSBAR MAINTENANCE The possibility exists that the nuts on a Hobie 16' dolphin striker rod could back off or become loosened. When this happens, the dolphin striker becomes useless. The compression load the mast creates on the front crossbar could cause failure. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE This potential problem can be completely eliminated by occasionally checking the nuts at either end of the dolphin striker rod to make sure they are tight. We recommend center punching the threads at the nuts to prevent them from working loose. Starting with the next issue, we will be running a special series of technical articles contributed by the experts, with tips on rigging, tuning, and racing from top Hobie skippers. Also a "how to..." section for new Hobie fans. Please send suggestions and requests for specific topics.

Les Luby, Granada Hills, CA Dear Mr. Luby: Thank you very much for your eyeglass holder. it was most thoughtful of you to respond in such a generous way to my letter in the Hot Line and ta me it was just that special manner Hobie people are known for. I enclose in this letter as a token of my gratitude a penant of my hometown, Bad Kreuznach. which explains to you the ared where 1 live and also an old print of Bad Kreuznadwhich I hopeyoulike. To inform you. shortly after receiving the eyeglass holder I had my first capsizing with my Hot)ie 14 and i must say it wcirked perfect as I still have my glasses. so thank you. Yi,st<irday, I went sailingon alake in S<tul h L,rn Germiiny near t he Black Fmt'stand Hs il was a perfect sililing day with 1(its cif wind I had my I'list experience ki sail on une hull;i mI havearunwithallthe other 1)( 036its (in the lake.
