| GOOD CONDITION HOBIE 16 FOR SALE I have a good condition Hobie 16 that needs a new home. I imported this boat from Australia in 1994 to race and only had one season before marriage and kids got in the way. The boat has been parked ever since with only a couple of outings – if anyone is interested in taking it off my hands please let me know. Regards, Allan Shanahan. allan@shanahanarchitects.co.nz Ph 379 3718. Fx 379 3711. |
| LOOKING FOR A REPLACEMENT STARBOARD SIDE HULL FOR A HOBIE 16 I am looking for a few spares at the moment as we had a bit of a misshap on our Hobie the other day. The starboard hull broke away from the trampoline and has suffered substantial structural damage. Now am hoping to find anyone with a replacement starboard side hull for a Hobie 16. If you know or hear of anything. If you could let me know any details, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks for your time. Shasa Thornton, sgt_xtra@hotmail.com |
| GRANT BECK SAILS FOR SALE I like Harry Handley am hanging up my boots and my Hobie 16 is now for sail at Boat Bits. However I also have a set of South African Hobie 16 sails for sail. They have only done two nationals and no other sailing. Both Nationals were predominantly light so the sails are almost brand new. I won both the nationals with these sails. Price. $2000.00 Cheers, Grant Beck, PH 64 9 8386961, Fax 64 9 8364849, Mobile 64 21 822682, grant@adhesivetechnologies.co.nz |

| I JUST WANT TO GET OUT ON THE WATER! (EMMA, CREW REQUEST) I've moved up to Auckland fairly recently, managed to find a few spots in the big boat racing scene, but I'm keen to get back into some small boat sailing and get wet again. I've mostly sailed a 420 before, not too much experience in cats so far but have been thinking about buying a Hobie 16 to zoom around in. So I'd like to get out crewing, get to know some people, try it out, and keep an ear out for any that come up for grabs maybe. If you could let anyone know who wants a crew that would be fantastic. I'm 28, 65kg. Contacts are this email, cell 021 048 2809, home 623 4165, work 3737599 extension 86803. Although my home phone is terrible and crackly and my flatmates leave it off the hook all the time to get flat. I'm super keen for anything, racing or otherwise, just want to get out on the water again! Cheers, Emma |
