Dear Hobie sailors,

The IHCA is pleased to announce the 20th Hobie 16 Worlds will be at Jervis Bay, New South Wales, Australia. The world championship event will take place in Australia in 2014 with the opening ceremony on January 31 and competition continuing through to the open finals and closing ceremony on February 15.

Hobie Cat Australasia has been able to secure the world championships for the region with the support of the New South Wales state government through its events promotion arm Destination New South Wales and the Shoalhaven City Council via Shoalhaven Water and Shoalhaven Holidays.

In more exciting news and show of strength of the largest multihull class in the world, Hobie Cat Company will announce an additional two more Hobie 16 World Championships in the next five years. That is a total of three Hobie 16 Worlds in five years . Again showing the strength of the Hobie Class and the great support by the Hobie Cat manufacturers.

Wow, that's fantastic news!

Alter Cup on Hobie 16s (in conjunction with the America's Cup) and a Hobie 16 Worlds in Australia within just a few months of each other.

I really need to buy another 16 and find some more vacation time...

I think the Hobie 16 is the only Class that provides boats for it's Worlds.

There are very few boats, of any kind, provided at any level of regatta.

I need a 16 because I sold the last one and need to practice. That, and the yard just doesn't look right without a 16 in it...
