Cool! my old Hobie 16, the "orange crush" sail number 23053, is the intro! Very cool to see it sailing decades before I owned it (and better than I ever sailed it!).

Wow thats some history! So do you still own it?

[@johnhargrove2582]

@@hobiecatdays no, I left the islands over 10 years ago and sold it to a neighbor. Not sure what happened to it after that. I'm still sailing here in Miami, but on 3 hulls now!
