@@LukksiaI don't remember how they are setup on a 16 but on the Hobie 18 there is a spring-loaded cam so when the rudder hits something it just kicks up. If you're out on the water you just lift up on the tiller and push it back into position and you're back to sailing again.
@@Admiralofthedeeps I was just wondering. You can get some boats for free, you just need to do work on them. I have seen a lot of free boats and jet skis in my area
I agree. If you're handy (which you probably are if you want to take care of a boat) and you're willing to put in the work, you should be able to find one very cheap or even for free indeed. I hope you find one. You sound like you deserve one

Literally what a hobies meant for ❤❤ had an 18' as a Kid in the Indian and banana river. Flipped it many times and pulled up onto a firepit before. She was built to last. New owners sent me pics of them nearly doing the same a few years after i sold her. Miss that thing cant wait to get one for my son and teach him to sail like mine did.
My dad used to do this with his Hobie 16 going through the surf and Landing it on the beach. These boats were made for this and it's not a big deal to add a sacrificial layer of fiberglass on the bottom when needed.
@@declansb641 yeah I grew up on hobie's and prindle's. In my twenties I bought a nacra 5.8. The Jersey Shore was my home and I'm sure there aren't too many better places to grow up.
Yeah..people acting like these are 5 Million dollar photo princesses.. these are meant to be used hard, reglassed every few years and left out all year. These and CL16s were our go to boats as kids.
I know later that year the boat split in two. It was an older boat the had bought for next to nothing.the hulls were soft to say the least. What will it take ...
I had a rental one in Oz.. the mast wasn't put on properly, I knew it was didgy, it wasn't of my doing.. theybhad to bring me back before I drifted out to sea. I thought thier rigging wasn't properly done I should have got my money back. I'm a hard sailor..I like to go fast and work the cat to its fullest I guess they wetentbr3ady for a real sailor...most aren't very good that hire the cats..lol...immconfident I'm an excellent sailor, I've never capsized in all my sailing years, I tried on purpose sometimes but I chicken out because I don't want to end up in the cold water lol...
My friend I met he rented cats at a local beach...he said the first time inwent out on one, he was amazed how fast I just took off from shore most people get stich trying most d9nt sail well..lots claim they can sail..bs he has to go out smd bring them in and here comes me that just whips out and zooming up and down the bay on one hull etc...
Once I offered to take a cat out(free cat hire lol)to go out and help someone sail back to shore thst wete going further and further away with the wind, I'd save him diesel from taking the dingy runner..rescue boat..I basically was teaching them hoe to sail back to shore..it took ages Vos we had to tack all the way back in..theybwete also slowly drifting towards the rocks at one point.
Yeah like the previous person said. Not at that speed That's also not a soft sand where they are. The fact that they don't have any of their sheets loose is just so stupid. Convinced they don't know how to sail
I did this coming onto a little island in a reservoir in central Oregon and the mast broke at the base. It was late in the day and in the 70's way before cell phones so I had no way to tell my party the situation. I scrounged around the little island and found old boards and barbed wire and re-rigged the mast and gently sailed back at night to my camp just in time to stop a friend from driving into town to notify the sheriff.
Wow. We beach ours all the time filming videos when camping via our Hobie 16's, but only on soft sand and only a few feet up. It does look fun, but it may lead to less fun later when it starts leaking, goes slower, or is unusable.
That’s a normal Hobie16 beaching if ever I saw one. And Ive seen a lot of them and even made a few myself. Never dared doing that on my Nacra 6.0spi tho.… hah sweet memories of my youth…
Sure, I still do this with my Hobie18 *on sandy beaches*. When a beach is this hard it's stupid to do, unless you really enjoy the fiberglass work and injecting epoxy to fix the delamination that's exacerbated from this hard of a hit. Drill a bunch of holes in your hull for that kind of repair and you'll be more careful not to abuse your boat in the future (speaking from experience).
Definitely not anywhere near 20knots. They are sailing relatively close hauled given the position of the main and jib, but hardly heeling. My guess is at the most 15knots.
They do that all the time at the Jersey Shore. Granted, our beaches are smooth with soft sand. Coming through the breakers is always fun. Break through them going out and surfing them coming in.
Lol yeah 12-15 knots not 40. Lots of old timer J24 racers have stories of running j/24’s up the beach in Florida after the fleet gets hammered by a thunderstorm
No white caps. 40 knots you will have white caps. The beaching was intentional it's frequently done because it's easier to get your boat on the beach than it is to drag it on the beach

15

More like 10 knots, 12mph. And hardly a "crash"!
gusting 15 lol
Used boat for sale, some minor scratches and scuffs.
How much and where
As a former Hobie 16 sailor/racer/dealer, this is NOT a crash. It's called "beaching", although the approach was a bit fast.
A "bit" fast :'D ? well at least he wont have to pull it up that incline hahaha
doesn't that hurt the rudders?
@@Lukksia no no, they removed the pin beforehand, they simply lift up. It looks rough but it's perfectly fine for this vessel!

@@Lukksiaskipper does loose the knot on the line that holds the rudders down on the water. So, the answer to your question is no.
40 knots 🤣🤣🤣🤣
"It's cool. My dad will buy me another one."
Probably his dad's boat anyway😂
It’s fine. Look at the hull shape and kick-up rudders.
At all my reggatas, they are like that
You never behaved like that as a kid? Come on now, pretty sure we all did. Whether or not we got caught 😂
It's sand and sea weed as well, they had the rudders up before contact.
Damn bro you better be good at gelcoat repair
I doubt there’s much gel coat left on a 50 year old hobie lol
It's Dad's boat
Man, people are ramming boats onto beaches and sinking them every day, and here's me who would treat a boat so well but can't afford one 😢

everything doesnt break right away pewssy boy
Poor hobie!
The only way a Hobie can do 40 knots is if it is being towed behind a speedboat.
40 knot wind
@@jordanzyla3377 not even close 10 to 15 at most.

I used to TOW a skier with mine! Yeah.. what you need is WIND to do that though. AND you need to know wtf you're doing, of course.
Or being towed behind an AC64
This guy had no idea what 40 knots is. Clickbait or a liar.
Sail it like it's stolen.
Beauty of a Hobie. Can be beached as long as it's sandy

More Like say 20 Knots ?
That idiotic laughter at the end says it all... 🙄
they're kids though so maybe chill your tits
the speed for beaching was approximately 12 knots
That wasn’t a crash, that was just running it up the shore. Do a cartwheel next time so we have something to really laugh about!!!
no respect for sailing, what a shame, poor cat.

That’s like watching a 747 make a wheels up landing, and then saying “hey, no problem! It was made to land on a runway.”

Hobie 16’s are the best!
No hobie cat has ever come close to 30 knots
40 knots in what? The mainsheet?
Very cool, yet bad, yet cool idea. Especially so since they got away with it. Not remotely close to 40 knots of speed.

The bottom of a 16 is WAY stronger than an 18, they are built to beach from the surf. We did it all the time.
used boat sale. one careful owner
Totally deliberate. You can see the guy at the back holding the sail rope taught to keep the sail perpendicular to the wind.
I’d never treat my own boat that way. So, I hope the company that rented this out see this video.
Destruction derby, hobie style
Thats not 40K knots
Definitely not anywhere near 20knots. They are sailing relatively close hauled given the position of the main and jib, but hardly heeling. My guess is at the most 15knots.

"40 knots"...
Great memories ⛵️
All of 5 knots
i suggest wheels!

A hobie 16 could only possibly do 40 knots if it was dropped from a plane. Plus it wasn’t a crash. It was just beaching intentionally.
40 knots….
They do that all the time at the Jersey Shore. Granted, our beaches are smooth with soft sand. Coming through the breakers is always fun. Break through them going out and surfing them coming in.
