I paid $250 for an '83 Hobie 16 with trailer. Spent around $2000 for sails, new tramp, rigging, line, and misc. parts. Spent many months getting everything together, trailer and boat registered, added some fiberglass to the bottom of hulls with epoxy, dismantled the whole boat and put it back together and it sails great.

Many hours of research and discussion with more experienced sailors, and it is all worth it. You will learn by trial and error, but can avoid many mistakes by searching this forum, saving yourself time, money, and injury.
