Wow! 20+ knots, not bad. I don't know if you guys read my other post titled "Lowering mast on Hobie 16" but now that my wife and I are looking into getting a new boat, were stuck between the Hobie 16 and the Hobie Tiger. But seeing how fast the Hobie 16 is, that might be the boat for us. We really just want something performance oriented (fast) but also fairly easy to sail.
