1) The stock sail from Hobie Cat was a “pin head” sail. Aftermarket sails can be made either pin head or square top.
2) Hobie stopped making sails for the 21 a long time ago, but you can still get new sails from aftermarket sail lofts.
Good to know.

3) The original design used sockets molded into the hull that the wing posts dropped down into. That design never changed from Hobie, however you may find some owners have modified the wing setup for one reason or another.
OK.

4) Standard inspection points that you would use for any Hobie- check for soft spots or damage in the hulls, corrosion on the metal parts, condition of the sails, and general completeness of the boat. Keep in mind that it has been out of production for several decades and only a relatively few number of boats were ever produced, so any replacement parts will be hard to come by.
This post seems to indicate that 774 21s were made. Is that correct ?
