Hello All,

Go to the Hobie FX-1 site in France.

One has to do a little 'hunting', but there are pictures of
'racks' for the FX-1

They are quite innovative, not the 'passenger' models,..rather, the 'race' versions.

I remember 3 models.

One was a 'short' extension, maybe 8 inches out from the hull.

The next was 20-24 inches out. Made to hike off of.

The last was the largest extension and set up to sit on.

My needs for my I-17 was the 2nd model[heavy weather], but I do not need any material [ other than support] forward of the d-board well [ just d-board back to say, 1 foot behind rear x beam]

Throw a couple footstraps on,...and bam,..you are ready to fly!

regards,

Bruce
