havin too much fun down here in florida. We had a solid 3 days of hard south/ southeast wind so me and my coworkers tore it up in our hobiecat waves. Too much fun hiking up on one hull... pictures attached. Im wearing the black jacket. Tomorrow i should have a chance to head out on my friends hobie 20 that absolutely tears through the water. anyone use these back in NJ?

We've flipped a couple.... I think the best was when we had 35 mph winds and went out on one, my friend jameson and me both got catapulted 10 feet in the air when the boat went over. theyre fun but i like the bigger hobies because you have more control over them then these which are the basic ones.

And jimbo, this is my new job down here, Im not working with the kids anymore Im a sailing instructor.

Are you getting into the Mahi? Reports Im getting are the Mahi are going off in 100 to 150 feet. The big Cobia run should get going any day right off the beach.
