Hobie Bravo

[1][2][3] The design has built by Hobie Cat in the United States since 2001 and remained in production in 2019.

[1][2][3] The Bravo is a recreational sailboat, with the dual hulls and cockpit made from rotomolded polyethylene and an aluminum rotating mast, supported by a bi-pod instead of standing wire rigging.

It has a single square-topped, roller furling sail, a catboat rig with no boom and a mast-top mounted float to prevent turtling, that also acts as a wind indicator.

[1][3] The hulls have spooned plumb stems, vertical transoms, a single central skeg-mounted kick-up rudder controlled by a tiller and lack keels.

[1][3] The boat features a narrow fixed cockpit between the hulls with a built in cooler and cup holders, as well as hiking straps.
