New Wild Cat F18 Systems

Well we have just pulled the Wild Cat back out of the shed for the the first time since the Nationals in September. We are up here at the Fastways Gold Coast Cat Week & F18 QLD State Titles getting ready to dodge the sand bars (most of which we found today) lucky the Hobie Wild Cat is built strong.

Below are a few photos of the latest set up we are running using the new T18 & T2 blocks along with some sexy Harken red ratchet blocks that we are testing along with a double T2 block I have made up.
