Never did any mods to our 16, other than graphics on the hulls. Old Boss New Boss, after the Who song.
Raced with another 200+ pounder. We ruled in big wind, but not so much in light air. Loved hiking out on the trapeze, and did a few cartwheels, all good.
Never had the pleasure of meeting Hobie, but did run into his contemporary, Dale Velzy, at a Lake Havasu windsurf comp. Cool old guy, also an innovator, messing with windsurf hulls with divots and channels.
