SAILING COLLECTION4
The Hobie Bravo is ideal for beginners on moderate days while still offering an entertaining ride for skilled hands on breezy days. Its unique hard deck attaches directly to the hulls. Sturdy rotomolded polyethylene construction makes the Bravo an ideal candidate for beach launchings and windy-day docking lessons, and its user-friendly, boomless mainsail twists off in puffs while remaining stiff enough to capture gentle breezes. Should the wind machine really start piping, the Bravo’s sail, which flies off of an easy-to-step A-frame mast, is easily reefed.
STANDARD FEATURES:• Impact-resistant rotomolded polyethylene hulls offer years of service• Boomless, square-top Dacron mainsail twists off in gusts for power control; angled full battens
allow for easy reefing and furling• A-frame mast is quick-to-rig • EZ Loc Rudder System makes lowering or raising the rudder a quick task• Four corner-mounted carrying handles and dual under-deck handles offer solid grips • Single 8" “Twist and Seal” hatch keeps small items dry• Six-scupper cockpit drains quickly • Padded hiking straps provide windy-day relief• Non-conductive Comptip mast helps ensure safety • “Hobie Bob” mast float and a dedicated righting line ease capsize recovery

The minimal-maintenance Wave has earned its reputation as a fun and versatile beach cat thanks to its impressive four-sailor payload. While the Wave makes for a great social platform, it’s also a sporty, performance-minded catamaran that boasts symmetrically shaped keels that create lift, sans the need for daggerboards. The boat’s rotomolded polyethylene hulls are safe, sturdy and encourage island exploration, while its sailplan can tackle everything from light airs to days when the wind is blowing dogs off chains.

The can-do T2 matches a powerful sailplan and a double-trapeze rig with a pair of forgiving rotomolded polyethylene hulls to create a user-friendly, high-adrenaline rocketship. The T2’s symmetrically shaped keels eliminate the need for daggerboards, and the boat’s built-in righting line and “Hobie Bob” simplify righting maneuvers, should you accidentally discover the outside of the envelope. A square-topped mainsail, a Dacron jib, and an optional Gennaker make the T2 a perfect boat for sailors transitioning to high-performance multihull sailing, while still offering speed-to-burn performance to keep advanced-level sailors excited.
