Two Hobie 16s. Two solo sailors. Two-lap races where one mistake can cost you the win.
Join Joe Bennett and Gerardo near Progreso, Mexico, for an intense catamaran race training session. After practising starts, we add a windward mark — putting boat handling, tactics and preparation under pressure.
Starting in around 10 knots, we work through getting space to accelerate, tacking without stalling, clean mark roundings and close downwind battles. Then a squall arrives and changes the game.
With simultaneous onboard views, you can follow both sailors through the same manoeuvres and see where time is gained and lost. Expect real mistakes, running commentary and adjustments as the session develops.
Settle in for the full session: this is practical Hobie 16 racing, with plenty to learn from both boats.
