Hobie FX-1
Hobie FX One
Description
Gentlemen, start your engines! The Hobie FX One is a make-no-bones-about-it, one-person, all-out sailing machine that was designed by our sister company, Hobie Cat Europe. Go-fast features include wave-piercing bows, fiberglass/foam sandwich construction, dual daggerboards and a square-top mainsail that’s flown from a rotating mast. Plus, you can easily turbo-charge your FX One with the optional jib and asymmetrical-spinnaker with snuffer system. While the FX One can be a one-man race-boat, it’s also an ideal rocket ship for sharing a wild ride with a friend or two on a windy day.
