The Club Is Home To Two Main Types Of Boat

Hobie 16s

Since Hobie Alter unleashed this revolutionary beach cat on the world in the 1970s, over 100,000 have been produced. Simple, durable and easy to rig, Hobie 16s offer twin-trapeze sailing and exhilarating performance with speeds of 20 knots plus! This iconic sailboat is the world’s most popular catamaran.

Formula 18 Hobie Tigers and Wildcats

Longer and wider than the Hobie 16, these boats have a spinnaker, dagger boards and more complex rig. They really come into their own when you hoist the kite on a downwind leg and the awesome spinnaker power kicks in. Definitely not for beginners or those with heart problems.
