Bravo Sail Details

Background:
The new Bravo is Hobie's latest contribution to sailing simplicity. The Bravo's large sail area makes it responsive in light winds, while the roller-furling main and square-top sail design allow for controlled sailing in all wind conditions. Hobie Cat has a Patent Pending on the unique furling Bravo Sail Rig.

With its unmatched ease of use, comfort and stability, the Hobie Bravo is ideal for new sailors and experienced sailors of all ages. And of course it looks great, since it's a Hobie.

The Bravo's stable hull shape not only makes for a comfortable ride, but also a great learning platform.
