Tudy, maybe that boat is a Hobie 14? If it is, you've got a classic on your hands. If not, as long as it floats, who cares! Drive over to the Twin Cities in the spring, and check out one of the biggest and best Hobie dealers in the country: Hi Tempo. They're sure to help you out!
Fair (cold) winds,
