Those are fun boats! I have great memories of trips on a Hobbie 33. First overnight with such dense fog we could hardly see the bow, long trip with my wife, I was stuck in the quarter/pipe berth and she was in the bow, and a fine spinnaker run by moonlight. Enjoy, Lee > On Aug 31, 2016, at

Hum, I clicked on the Loctite link below, and it’s NOT recommended with butyl! WHAT? I thought my hull/deck joint was put together with butyl, so it could be tightened up - only if leaking. It’s lasted 32 years, so C&C got a lot right! Not sure I’d want to risk/mess with that record. . .

Hi Josh, I’d suggest waiting till you can get the carbon spinnaker pole. It will make all the difference in how often you use it. It will take the compression load to crank the Asym around to allow you to sail deeper, and maybe line up better with the waves, a good offshore trick. Any two-pa
