[net.rec.boat] Hobie Sailors, where are you?

***
Are there many Hobie (or similar blue water catamaran craft - like
Prindle, Pcat, Tornado, etc.) out there in NETLANTIS?

Since the season is upon us, discussions of regattas, margaritas,
tuning, hull raising and red-neck fishermen, etc. would be appropriate.

I'll start out by asking if anyone has rebuilt the hull edges of an H16
and has a success or failure to discuss.  Mine are rather smoothed from
10 years of desert lakes (where the grains of sand are 2" diameter).
I'm debating to rebuild the edges.  Does it improve performance enough
to warrant all the (apparent) work?  Does it last?  Is anyone there?
