For a Rookie, I am really learning a lot from you, Jo. Thank you for your commitment.

Glad to hear it! You're very welcome.

Glad you think so!

@boss_ftw 3 года назад

Hey Joseph, I appreciate you doing this. I don't remember if you recall, but I asked about trailering and putting the mast up/taking it down solo a few weeks ago on your live stream. I certainly appreciate the follow up (whether intentional or by coincidence).

@JoyriderTV 3 года назад

Thanks for the idea! I had to move the boat so it seemed like a good opportunity.

@markkurtis8637 3 года назад

I don't know why but I never considered putting it on the trailer backwards. I'm liking this and I'm going to give it a try and, I think I'm going to like this a lot. Thanks!

@JoyriderTV 3 года назад

Yeah, that's what i thought - I don't do a lot of trailering unless it's with a big trailer with 5 or more boats. This seemed like a good solution for the tangle free process. Putting it back up will be the next video.

@LinandPete 3 года назад

@@JoyriderTV It does make it more difficult to fix a lighting board to though, I have a metal rack that fits into the rudder pintles, and has the mast crutch and lighting board on it, which would not work this way around :-) Obviously not such a problem in laid back Greece though ;-)

@TheMTBChannel 3 года назад

+1 for the great idea of putting the boat on backwards which lets you leave the rigging in situ. That would save a fair bit of time in setting up.

@JoyriderTV 3 года назад

Yeah, very handy!

Thank you very much for your videos, they are very didactic. They help and give very good ideas. I don't miss any of them. I'm trying to locate the piece that helps to raise and lower the mast. In another video you provided a link to amazon but it is disabled. Can you tell me where I can find it?

@JoyriderTV Год назад

If you are in the USA i would suggest contacting Murrays - they carry the widest range of hobie parts

@jasonslater6467 3 года назад

Interesting video. There seems to be as many methods to raising and dropping as mast as ways to skin a cat. FYI no hinge on the Maricat so I raise and drop vertically then with a cord on the foot of the mast and around the front cross beam as a hinge and then I can lower it as normal but in front of the boat. I like the use of the main halyard. I've just sold the Calypso 14 which does hinge so I'll pass that method on to it new owner.

@JoyriderTV 3 года назад

Yes, a lot of options. Here's what i did with the 14 which i thought would be a good one for you: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Eh7Vt02LQ8o.html

Im picking up a hobie cat from a friend tomorrow he gave it to me for free and its extremely beautiful and i dont have any idea what im doing with it but im gonna try to sail it.

@JoyriderTV Год назад

If there's anything that you get stuck with, let me know and I'll point you in the right direction. Congratulations - exciting times ahead!

@JonathanLeitschuh 3 года назад

Putting the boat on the trailer backwards is incredibly clever outside-the-box thinking. I'm able to step the mast solo, but it's difficult, doesn't feel safe, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to hurt my back doing it someday. I was debating buying a Mast Stepper III for my Hobie Getaway, but I'll try this first to see if it helps with the stepping problem.

@JoyriderTV 3 года назад

On the 16 this was quite a manageable solution

@ifyoubuildit6077 3 года назад

There is a quicker version, called a Trucker Hitch, of your loop-in-the-rope.

@JoyriderTV 3 года назад

Yes, I saw the trucker's hitch before but I never got used to using it. I'll take another look. Thanks

@ifyoubuildit6077 3 года назад

@@JoyriderTV It looks difficult at first, but the essence is to make the block & tackle pulley (same as you made) by putting a bight through a loop.

@WhiteSliceMedia 3 года назад

Made it look easy!!

@JoyriderTV 3 года назад

It's all in the preparation!

@markgallagher1376 3 года назад

I step the mast solo all the time except with the boat facing forward. The thing I would worry about doing it with the boat facing backwards is if the pin slips out of the hinge(which I have seen happen) or forgetting to put the pin in ( which I have done) and the mast come crashing down on your car.

@JoyriderTV 3 года назад

Ouch! Yes that would sting a bit

@alistairclyne9362 3 года назад

What are you playing at JB?? Look at that weather behind you ... a few folk still sail in the UK through the Winter (Frostbight Series, etc) but you've still got what we in the UK would consider to be great summer weather!!

@JoyriderTV 3 года назад

Yeah, I know, to good to miss. The reason for the pack is actually due to our second lock down and the threat of a fine if doing an activity not considered excercise. Playing it safe.

@PumaCat203 3 года назад

Hey Joseph, I have recently come across your channel and I like how informative it is all while you're ripping up the water! I recently have been looking at buying a Hobie and have been looking at the Hobie Getaway. Just wanted to see if I could get your thoughts as I wouldn't be racing it but still want to haul butt out of the water. Keep the videos coming!

@JoyriderTV 3 года назад

The 16 is faster but more difficult and more powerful. If you've done some sailing before you'll do well with a 16 as long as you don't try too much wind too soon. Getaway, much easier, forgiving etc. Not as quick, but still great fun and will go in the right wind - better if you want an easier time compared to performance.

@PumaCat203 3 года назад

@@JoyriderTV Thank you!

@C3DRI 3 года назад

Just wish there was a way to see detail of the trailer as there no video on trailers for small catamarans like this or a freestyle 474

@JoyriderTV 3 года назад

When I dig the trailer out again i'll make a vidoe looking at it. Thanks

@stephenclemmet1926 3 года назад

The only thing I can see going wrong here is the rope around the rudder might slip back and the rudders then drop. Then again, the pressure might not let that happen. Easily solved by threading the rope to the back beam on its way to the other hull.

@JoyriderTV 3 года назад

Yeah, I did think that. for a longer journey i'd have used a more secure method.
