Pretty amazing that this video was filmed in 1999-2000ish next to Cheeca Lodge Resort on the Moorings Property using the Hobie 16 by the Hobie Dealer, Caribbean Watersports. They are still in business at Playa Largo Resort in Key Largo as of 2023 and rent the Hobie Wave and Getaway.
Excellent video ! Very good visual and clear instructions. The video is giving us a perfect visual of everything that's happening and gives you a feeling of actually sailing. Makes me want to try this !
that was great i live in van bc and have dinghied hobied wind surfed out of our little home sweet home base Jericho sailing centre where people can learn about all of the above and more without bustin the bank check it out its a community resource in a beautiful spot cheers from canada
Glad you like the video. Video was done a long time ago, but learning to sail has not changed much over the years. We are located in N Idaho so not far from you.
Yes it does! Have a feeling with the foiling thing taking off the H16 will be one of few non foiling cats to survive the foiling phase. Plus the H16 is king in the surf, and foiling does not work in the surf.
Good point. Annie (instructor in the video) is throwing the main which is good to do especially when in the surf and not having a lot of time to sheet in and out. In my beginner classes I teach sheeting in, then turn/jibe, and then sheet out when mainsail bends to the other side of the boat (battens pop opposite way as they where before the jibe)... see my other learn-to-sail video... ua-cam.com/video/4LzVdU2aiHM/v-deo.html
Yes she did. When sailing downwind you only need one rudder, usually the leeward rudder, to steer. Having the second rudder down results in more drag and slightly slower speed. The speed matters more in racing than it does in day sailing.

I would love to have her help reacquainting myself with one of the great joys of our youth - Hobie sailing.
Well done video, audio, and quick sailing demo. All the way around... very professional!
Thank you

Nice video....what part of the u.s. is she from?? (Instructor)
Florida
Neat video. Kinda cringe humor but it's informative
we got some water.....**pause**(dont say booze)*** and snacks
Yep the humor is a bit corny but hey the women in this video are awesome!
nice training vid. where was it taped at?
Florida, USA
u yr
I'm buying one!
Great where are you located. Try to hook up with a local Hobie fleet. Great way to be a part of the Hobie family.
its much better on your rig if you sheet in the main tight right before a gybe.not cleating it and letting it our right away.

Helpful!
Did you mean to have one rudder blade up?
Yes she did. When sailing downwind you only need one rudder, usually the leeward rudder, to steer. Having the second rudder down results in more drag and slightly slower speed. The speed matters more in racing than it does in day sailing.
okayyy
Well done
ver good
Once they said OK for the tenth time, I had to abort. OK? Maybe it got better after the first minute, but I'll never know. OK? ... OK!
Ok, guess to each his own. First time I got a negative comment about this video versus just learning from what they are teaching. Its all good.
