Hobie Cat Shop

After only a few months of work we are proud to announce that the building has been completed on the new Hobie Cat shop in Langebaan.  The shop has been operating on a part time basis for some time now, however this will come to an end and we will be open for business full time.  

The shop will stock spares, equipment, sailing gear and more.  These include equipment like Beach Dolley wheels for Hobie Cats and an amazing range of Hobie Cat branded clothing.  New and second hand boats are also available and we also stock the range of Hobie Kayaks.  

Bertie Reed at RCYC

As most are aware, Bertie was the first South African to single-handedly complete three circumnavigations of the globe in 1991and was subsequently nominated to the Single-Handed Sailor's Hall of Fame in the Museum of Yachting at Newport, Rhode Island, U.S.A. He sailed a calculated 170 000 sea miles competitively, over 100 000 miles of which were singlehanded, all of which has earned him a special honoured place among the elite of blue-water sailors around the world.

News from the South Africa Team at the Volvo Youth Sailing ISAF World Camps

Hi All

Once again we had mixed emotions and wind conditions on both courses

I was on the Laser course AND Dave on the Hobie/420 course.

The wind started out in the morning at about 10-15 knots southwest, but dropped quickly before we got out on the water.
