Kind of doubt if wings were a factory option on the Trac 18, but maybe someone knows something different.
Wings of any kind can be hard to find because they were generally an expensive option that didn't get installed on many boats. When you get outside of Hobie wings they are even more rare. But ingenuity can win out, I know a Prindle 18 owner who installed Hobie Getaway wings on his boat, turned out pretty nice but he had to engineer it.
