Default Basic Sailing Terms for the Weak Minded

You know... I can't even remember that. All I remember is having lots of
trouble getting through the waves. Capsized at least 1/2 dozen times trying
to get out.

Well, did it have a jib?

If you're thinking of something I said, I made no mention of a jib.

I used to sail a hobie in San Diego many, many years ago. I don't
recall which one, but it was fairly large... sailed it off the Del Mar
coast. I believe 18 or 23 sounds right, but I can't remember. It
was my neighbor's and those days he just left it on the beach without
worrying if anyone would steal it.

Was it the Hobie 14??? Or am I thinking of another small cat?

Is that a "turbo" (what an awful name) version you are talking

about?

In a pig's eye you sailed a hobie 16. Prove it.

However, I dispute the fact that a real sailor would ever use the
term "heeled" to describe the excitement that accompanies the act

of

sailing




a Hobie 15 on a single hull.

What a load of crap. I sailed a Hobie 16 for the past two summers

in

north



carolina dn you didn't.
The dictionary, Hobie website and even the chapman's terms says

I'm

right.



Let us know when you ever sail a Cat of ANY kind!
