I'm adding this line today, 3/2/24, to say it's still available but I'm in PR again and won't be back in NY until either June or August, 2024.
Also, to clarify the pictures, the top 3 pictures are the PR boat that was sold; the bottom pics are the 1980 which is up for sale.
I just sold my Hobie 16 in Puerto Rico on 6/1/23 but my $2,500.00 NYC HOBIE 16 IS STILL AVAILABLE as of today, 9/21.
Since 2019, through internet sites, I used to invite anyone who wanted to go sailing in PR or NYC to join me and I met some great folks and we had a lot of fun. But, my age and health and my doctors’ admonitions have made me decide to stop sailing and sell my boats.
I’ve owned a 1980’s Hobie 16 with a newly renovated trailer in NYC for over 35 years and also, since 2019, I’ve owned the 2005 Hobie 16 which won the 2005 North American Championship in CA along with a newly built trailer and a new Florida Sailcraft beach caddy. Both boats are shipshape and the PR Hobie was just sold. I’m selling the NYC boat and trailer, with some extras, for $2,500,000. Enjoy viewing both the 3 PR boat photos; the NYC Hobie has the multi-colored sails in the 4th photo and the 5th 6th photos are also the NYC Hobie’s black trailer and the boat on the trailer.
The 1980 Hobie comes with everything you need ready to transport (newly renovated trailer (new tires, refurbished trailer, etc.)) and to sail and some extras such as a mast float, harness for hiking out, a new Hobie righting bag, hardware, life jackets, the works. This boat was bought in 1986 from the Candlewood Lake, CT Hobie dealer Mitchell O’Hara at that year’s Norwalk Boat Show and sailed all over NY's lakes and coasts (from Lake Ontario to Oneida Lake to Fire Island) only 5 to 10 times per year from 1986 to 2001 and in 2019. A 2002 auto accident stopped me from sailing for 17 years until 2019 and Covid stoppages and age and health have ended any more wonderful years of sailing experiences since then. The boat has been stored totally protected and the (upgraded) sails stored at my house.
I’m just back in NYC from PR and will return to PR in January so I invite you to see the NYC Hobie while I’m still here. Message me on Facebook to come and see the NYC boat on my waterfront lot, located in the Bronx just off I-95, anytime.
Also, do you or anyone you know have any suggestions about where to post, besides Marketplace and TheBeachcats, my interest in selling the Hobie here around the NY City area? In PR, each town has a blog and there are blogs with individual interests so it’s easy to make contact with every place on the Island but I don’t know how to get the word out about the sale of my boat here in NY. Thanks for your help. Glenn
