The hobie 14 has an eliptical section and I believe the hobie 14 masts are effectively cut down versions of the 16 mast. Same shape, wall thickness, only real difference being in mast height |

guys from memory and i am open to be corrected here doesnt the catapult and i think the unicorn use round section masts as apposed to the usual large wing section used on most cats could explain why beefing up was required ? bit like the 5.9 and the likes have diamonds but the hobies dont have you ever compared the weight my h17 mast weighed a lot more than my 5.9 mast thickness of metal i presume . so the kid could be right? |

Lets not be too harsh on the kid. The way i see it, he's got PLENTY of scope for learning and thats never a bad thing. Its the comment in choosing a boat section where feva-sailor has stated that the RS500 has a more effecient hull shape and is quicker than the 29er that worries me.  Doug |
