Hobie Cat Europe asked a panel of esteemed naval architects, Olympic sailors, and sailmakers to design and build an F18-class category killer. The result? The all-new Hobie Wild Cat F18. This no apologies racing cat will unquestionably make its presence known in F18 racing. Wave-piercing hulls, integrated wing mast section, and minimal drag from its high-aspect rudders and centerboards contribute to outrageous lift when sailing to windward. Downwind is a sleigh ride with the full spinnaker rig. Whether fleet racing or blistering across the water for the sheer thrill of it, the Wild Cat will most certainly satisfy your need for velocity.
