I'm looking at a '73 Hobie 16 around the corner. The owner says it has the "desirable big hulls" and that they were smaller later on. Is that true? I thought they all were the same exept for small weight variations.

The hull designs have not changed since the introduction in 71, except for the weight in 84 (Red Line Hulls). I belive (Off the top of my head) that the boat is about 40lbs lighter after 84.
