The Hobie Cat 16 is a catamaran sailing craft suitable for entry-level sailors and world champions alike. In 1969, in California, Hobie Alter introduced the boat, which he and his friend Phil Edwards designed. Its high-performance design combined in a easy-to-sail hull caught on quickly.

According to the Hall of Fame, reasons for its popularity include that it's easy-to-launch from the beach, it's trailerable by even small automobiles and its hull shape is easy to sail but powerful enough…
A flat bottom boat is just that: a boat with a flat bottom, at least two sides and maybe a transom. Flat bottom boats are less difficult to build than any V-hull design because the skin doesn't have bends and counter-bends in it, which means no fancy measures or cutting (called "fairing"). Flat bottom boats have another big advantage: they can float in less water than V-hulls, which makes them suitable for fishing in shallows and on mud flats the "prettier" V-hulls can't go near.
