Hobie Racing & Touring boards have been developed by Hobie’s world class water athletes and Hobie’s R & D team. Utilizing computer aided shaping technology and countless hours of on the water testing and racing, we have been able to zero in on critical performance factors in our designs. By utilizing CAD design programs and making small changes we are able to perfect the design. Our designs were developed to be fast in all conditions, have a stable confident feeling on the water, and maintain momentum in between strokes and paddle changes.

Dedicated for surf, the Fish line has amazing floatation ability combined with a thin rail. We have managed to integrate a flat deck into a tiny concave under the front foot for stability and the deck plan has been pushed as much to each side as possible. From there, we have integrated the rail in such a way as to make it as thin as possible. The Fish will surprise you as much by its floatation as by its ability to turn on a dime.

The Whisky 16 is an agile touring kayak developed by Nigel Foster. A spirited playboat for coastal waters, the Whisky 16, with its fuller bow and stern shape to reduce plunging, is designed with rough water, surf and current in mind, and for exciting coastal touring near the impact zones. On gentler waters, here is a comfortable easily maneuvered and stable craft to inspire confidence. It is an ideal boat in which to develop skills. With capacity for day trips, yet spacious enough for a few days of self-contained expedition paddling, the Whisky 16 comes into its own for exploring narrow passages and negotiating awkward corners where nimble turning is a delight.
