Yes.


Your average Joe doesn't have the $$ or the experience to deal with a spin boat out of the box. Why do you think they use Waves and Getaways at resorts (other than they're indestructible)?

You want more people to play? Keep it simple. Spinnaker boats are not simple.

For rentals maybe for racing, I sure hope not. That's WEAK! I don't have a problem with a wave, I've been thinking of getting one, I just don't think it's the answer to all cat racing. Not even close. It's like saying the Prius is the answer to car racing.


You really don't get it, do you, Todd?

People don't start racing in a Formula 1 car.

You can't see why anyone would want to race anything but the biggest, baddest machine out there. Guess what? A lot of people don't want to deal with the complexity and cost of a F18 / I20 or even an F16.

Why do you think that the Hobie 16 is still the largest catamaran class in North America?
