In the mountans of British

You don't drive a hobie cat. You skipper one.

This is me skipping and my nephews out on the trapeze.

Shows how much balast on the windward side of the boat.
My other daily drivers are very boring. 2000 Malibu and a 1988 beater C**vy pickup.

Edit: Title should read "In the mountains of British Columbia.

Yes it is. My sister and brother inlaw have a place in Canal Flats. This was taken last year in late July.

I'm with you. Unfortunatly, My Hobie 16 is old and tired. Kinda like me.
It could use a new trampoline, it's getting a bit thread bare.

YES MOE' It was restored in the late 90's at a ford dealership in ohio for the owner. He died and a old man in ga. has had it for 6 years til yesterday. IT needs new wood and paint looks good in pics. but needs some work. It drives great flathead runs great and it stops great. YES IT WAS A GREAT FIND.

Hi Rick, I was just up in Canal Flats, there last weekend. My band played Saturday night for their Canal Days Dance. Was a great time.

This is an early 1917 Model T. Has a lot of holdover parts from the 1916 models which were the last of the brass radiator Ts. I've got '14 & '26 basket cases plus my '52 F6 to work on. Now if I can get back to a 40 hour work week I may have a chance of getting some of this stuff done.

Nice looking ride, arrowheadfred. I managed to drag home a 67 Galaxie 500 convertible last week. It's in pretty good shape and will give me something old to drive while I'm still working on my truck.
