translated french blog regarding price
good morning,
for information "pearl " is announced in 15 177 EURO at a stockist of Rochelle (not to make pub)
Way too pricey to make a splash. If the molds can somehow make it to Hobie Cat US (how's that for wishful thinking?). Too bad, looks like a fun boat for distance racing.
I'll agree it would fill the gap left by the 18, trouble is looks like the Getaway is Hobie's answer for that niche.
