  • Forgot I was going to add to the thread collection of broken H18's with this one. Oh my gosh it's another white one, I think you may be on to something.

  • ~~ I have a '87' 18 Mag. It won't break cause I painted it yellow.. icon_wink I think my cat gained weight this year, I farted a few times gettin the BEAST on the rack...... We all know the older Hobies are built well & tuff. The Nacras and other cats like it are "lightweight" and faster (from what I've read)... I haven't seen any other cats in a long time.. (ya, I know I gotta get outta the house more)..... I was wondering how the newer Hobies::: FX-ONE, WILDCAT, TIGER, etc etc... compare to the Nacra's or the other lightweight cats ????? (speed, strength,durabilty).. ya know what I mean !!!!

    presto99Is it just the white 18's that are failing? I have a yellow '86 and I dont want the front to fall off.

    Color shouldn't have anything to do with it. The color is just a tint added to the gelcoat, so has nothing to do with the strength of the build.

    all the pictures show white ones. icon_cool just having some fun.

    Oops, I guess the "beachcats of color" can fail too, just found this.

  • Ouch! That one had the reinforcement plates as well. Perhaps no internal patching though. Do you happen to know the story on that one?

  • Still not yellow though..... Maybe Hobie just built more white hulls. Gonna do reinforcements on mine soon.
