About 10 knots of wind, 85kg of Joyrider onboard. Here I'm taking this 13 foot ripper for a spin around the bay.
The Dragoon here uses a spinnaker with a bag system which uses a different technique to the more common chute/snuffer system.

Here's a bag that is made for the job:
or the cheaper option:
The bag used here is 30 gallons / 115 litres, I’ve found one that looks pretty much identical here:
The weight of the bag when used was around 40 kgs so well under half filled so the same bag will be good for the lighter sailor. ...
This is race 6 from the 2019 Europeans. The wind was around 8 - 10 knots. Our final position was 15th.
The boat was designed in 1967 by Rodney March from the Isle of Sheppey, England. At the IYRU Olympic Catamaran Trials for international status, it easily defeated the other challengers.[1]

Here we are taking out a 15 and giving it full beans.
The 15 is most suitable as a beginner or family boat but she's got plenty under the hood to provide the action on a windy day.
Double trapeze, high volume hulls and a reasonably modern sailplan give you just what you need!
Highly recreatio...

There are several things that you should look at before floating your boat for the first time in a season.
I didn't mention - checking sails, getting the rig tension/settings right or putting tape on various items.
Here's what we looked at:
Rudder Blades
Pop Rivets
Rudder Stocks
Bungs

Over the set up period, i've been using this stuff to clean masts and beams on the boats with great results.
Vinegar can be virtually used anywhere in the home from cleaning wood floors to windows to wastebaskets, but it is not recommended for use on marble since the acid content can etch the...
Here we're looking at the most common types of tape, their uses and how much sticky residue they will leave on a mast after a few days.
Then, how to remove that residue.
Then, how to apply the tape when taping rigging.
You might not have known that you needed to know this but you'll be gl...

Getting your trampoline tight on a 16 is essential. It's important on all catamarans but on the boats that don't bolt together it's even more important, really.
Here is a look at how you can get your tramp tight without help.
BTW this was going to be a multi cam video but unfortunat...
Here's a few examples of what we're doing pretty much every day at Wildwind in Vassiliki.
The light wind in the morning is the ideal time to try something new, learn some key skills, practice, refine and adjust techniques. Then from around 1400 the wind machine starts and then it's ti...
Here we’re looking at ways of upgrading your Hobie 16 or any other catamaran.
You can really transform pretty much any boat by replacing the following:
Mainsail - maybe for an ex Worlds or Europeans sail
Jib - maybe for an ex Worlds or Europeans sail
Trampoline - upgrade that PVC for a nice mesh tr...
While there's no catamaran sailing happening I though that we could take a look at Vassiliki Bay at the southern end of the Island of Lefkas.
This is where Wildwind is based and where (nearly) all of the Joyrider TV videos are coming from.
This place really is a paradise for sailing with crysta...
For over 30 years, Wildwind in Greece has been the top holiday location for anyone who’s serious about sailing. Unique climatic conditions, the widest range of dinghies and catamarans in Europe, highly experienced instructors and a fun, laid-back atmosphere make this a holiday experience you just ca...
This is a long one!
In order to make everything as easy and straight forward as possible when it comes to putting the Tiger back together, it is important to take some time to make sure that everything is done with some kind of system (especially for us where we have a lot of boats)

Here we're looking at a few things that could help.
1- Doing a good job folding your spinnaker single handed
2 - How to get a good rough idea of how much rig tension to put on your 16
3 - A slight set up alteration that could help you to get back on your boat after a capsize.
4 - How to get...
The FX1 is a single handed 17 foot long catamaran with trapeze, daggerboards and spinnaker.
This is a look at sailing it in a moderate wind.
Unfortunately the camera at the end of the boom decided to stop recording after a few minutes hence the lack of multi cam.
Keep watching to the end for a fu...
This is the one that will change everything. If you are a catamaran sailor who hasn't yet experiment with lifting the hull it's a great way to improve your control of the boat as well as being great fun and looking cool!
This technique is the same if you're single handed or two up, ju...
Due to popular demand i've been out to see how much wind it takes to right the Hobie 16 with 85kg of crew weight.
If it is windy enough (20 knots +) then it is definitely possible. Otherwise you either need outside assistance or some kind of device such as a bag:

The mast hinge available from Hobie is great for some extra security when putting your mast up or down. This part is made for 16s later than 2001 but there are instructions for modifying your mast base of earlier boats.
As well as facilitating the single handed raise and drop, this will also make pu...
