Beware the extra $150 fee to the winning bid. Steel trailer, solid section mast, take new 4-lug tires with you to pick it up.

I saw this earlier too, the pick of the gear in the box looks like it's actually in decent condition.

A boat of that age in Ridgecrest probably has some really soft decks. That place is pretty close to Death Valley, so it gets fricken hot there in the summer. The trailer and storage box alone are worth the price. Also, the harnesses in the pics, I'll buy them. Have you ever seen what they do to a girl in a bikini when she's trapped out? Send me a PM and I'll by both of em from you if you decide to part out the boat.

I'm not the seller I just saw it and if I was in CA not UT I'd probably look at it but otherwise I thought I'd let others know so they can get a deal on it if they want. Besides I'm to big for one of these.

Looks like it was a donation to some church organization who is selling it for cash. I think for as much as you can tell from pictures it looks to be in pretty good shape. But you never can tell for sure.

If I can get a Hobie 16 for a "song", well, here is my song:

Now, when can I pick up my new Hobie?

So far 10 people have listened to my song on the above website. That means I'm "owed" ten Hobie-16s. I'm excitedly waiting for those Hobies to be delivered. That will be a BIG fleet, when they all get delivered. Does that big of a fleet make me an Admiral? Wow! Me an Admiral!!! My mother will be so proud!

There's another song right there:

"Wow, I'm an Admiral and my momma is so proud. . ."

Who has the next line?
