History

A compact club and training cat sitting between the Wave and the Teddy in the Hobie range. Documentation on this model is thin today, so the figures here reflect typical dimensions for a Hobie boat of this size rather than one archived data sheet.

Sailing Characteristics

Light enough for one sailor to rig and launch alone, with a jib and small kite that give it a taste of two sail trim without needing a big crew. A sensible step up off a single-handed dinghy.

Racing Context

Seen mostly at club and sailing school level rather than on the open regatta circuit.
