Hi everyone

I have been lurking around the forum and learning lots from you all - thankyou for your efforts.

I have posted this video as an introduction. We love our TI and are planning to buy a second one this year. The reason is obvious from the video. I hope this video helps others understand the amazing versatility of this boat.

We live near Noosa Qld Australia.

Great video and I love the music.
I agree with Hammer. Really shows what the boat can do.

Thanks for sharing what must surely be a treasured personal family experience. :) Truly inspiring. I always (& still do) envisaged that the TI would/could take this craft to another level. I think you have clearly demonstrated that in your excellent video.
Hope you have many more treasured memories and adventures with your baby. :wink:
I hope you will post another clip when you have a second TI. Makes me wonder whether you are planning on taking all your neighbours with you :lol: :lol:

Fantastic fun family clip Steve, and well edited. The AI and TI are indeed very versatile bits of gear. Hope you Queenslanders are surviving the Cat 5 cyclone Yasi up there right now....Pirate

What a great introduction Steve. Welcome aboard. Really enjoyed the clip. The music suited it spot on. And Matthew answered one of the old threads, 'Can you sleep comfortably on the tramps'. He didn't seem to have any issues with it !

Thanks everyone for the encouragement.

Slaughter, I grew up in Belmont sailing pelicans, VJ's and 16' skiffs. I have enjoyed your video's. The Lake is one of the best sailing places in the country. When we get down that way we will try to chase you up.

Wonderful family video. Hobie could use it as an infomercial.

DrYak, perhaps it's time to stop making babies, until Hobie releases their 2012 T3 "TRIPLE ISLAND"? 8)

Thanks NOHUHU

I was training in OBGYN and can't work out if I failed or excelled.

Great video. Was about worried about "Matthew not quite making it home" until I saw he's only fallen asleep. Glad he wasn't plucked off by a shark - chomp chomp- nom, nom, nom..... That would have been a bit of a downer.
