That was SOP on my Hobie 16
In Response To: learned a new word today... ()

My first boat was a Hobie 16. I must have turned that boat over at least 20 times. The only time I couldn't do it was after I wrecked my knee. Single handing with my feet under the hiking straps. The boat went over and my leg rotated or hyper-flexed under the strap and destroyed my knee. OUCH!

Parbuckling,,,, So that's what I was doing.

Is that ship upright yet?
