My 1974 Hobie 14 had a red, white and blue sail, similar stripes on the hull, and was named Bi-Cat for the Bicentennial. Our 1977 Hobie 16 and 1979 Hobie 18 were both named Tom-Cat for my son, Tom and my initials. (Tom was the skipper on both).

No name on Tom's H-17 as it is the "Stars and Stripes" model. My H-17 is just Hobie 17, as they insisted on having a name on the Annual Multihull Trophy, for the Friday night Anthony's Series.
