Mainly what I was concerned about was driving the hook into the hull(hook down) & having my weight(180)rip the side of the hull out. I did once years ago rip the tramp on my Hobie
after jumping on board at the same time a wave lifted the boat. Have yet to flip the Nacra, the Hobie was flipped so many times I lost count. It for some reason appeared easier to get back on. The Nacra just seems more fragile, difference between a quarter horse(Hobie) & a race horse(Nacra). Thanks all for the input.
