20th Hobie 16 Worlds 2014 @Jervis Bay ,Australia
Sent by Steve Fields: “Yesterday we had a major accomplishment in getting all 60 New Hobie 16 Catamarans on to the beach. Today we put on the finishing touches with all the boats ready to go by mid afternoon.
In addition to the set up of the boats, today’s focus was on setting up the event marquees for all the Opening, Closing and Awards Ceremonies at Voyager park and the Hobie Event Store and Cafe on Huskisson beach for when the competitors aren’t on the water.
The event jury arrive tomorrow to prepare for registration and weigh on Friday for racing on Saturday.
Jervis Bay delivered exceptional sailing weather once again today with a top temperature of 33º and an average wind speed of 14 knots with it looking set to continue for the next few days.
Bring it on!

I just heard that my great sailing friend and former CEO of Hobiecat Europe has passed. May The endless oceans…
...Report was sent by an F18 Sailor, if you want Hobies reported send your own, we'll publish as usual. Cheers.
Looks like in your report the Hobies are not really present. Suggest to rewrite the article.
Thanks for the great report Wik. Great battle.
If I correctly read the results the overall winner this year is a Hobie16
