Can anyone tell me the age range of a Hobie Banana Split 16' cat? They're yellow with a prominent 'Banana Split' logo on the side of the hull. I'm thinking of buying a used one and would like to have some idea of its age.
Thanks, Dave

I believe you may be referring to Chunky Banana from 1978.

Look at the serial number on the transoms! It has a date code.

Thanks for the responses. Surprised at the fast replies. This was my first question as a newcomer on the website.

Will check the date code on the transon, as recommended.
