It took about 3 hours, but boy o' boy, do they work well.Such a drastic improvement over the cheap rollers that came with the trailer. "I installed some Hobie 16 hull cradles on the trailer today.

PLUS the money for the cradles goes for a quality American made product." - Karl Niedermeyer The cradles themselves will demonstrate that pride AND give the H16 a safe and comfy ride to his next duty station and beyond. one that will show him how proud we are of him. So I set out to effectively build him a new one as a homecoming gift. The trailer for his Hobie 16 started to fall apart as he crossed the country to leave the boat and pickup with me for the year. Our son is currently on a second military deployment in the Arabian Gulf for a year. I almost hated to have to put a drill to Kenny’s handiwork but it is part of the process and I was extremely pleased with the final solution. These are not ready to slide right on, but they are worth a bit of effort. "Having received the H16 cradles from Kenny, I was immediately impressed with the quality. While I had previously downloaded the installation procedures, it was time to get the required hardware. I would recommend Kenny for any aspect of your cat needs." - Ed Lavin "No more dings on the boat from the trailer, just from sailing :) The cradles fit perfect for my Hobie 16 and will grant me less time doing hell coats and more time flying hulls. Upon arrival in Long Beach, California, I found that his sailbox is indeed very well constructed." - Kent Blasie "It was a pleasure working with Kenny Boudreaux, from my initial contact through construction and ultimate delivery of the product.
After I get done fixing up the rest of my Inter 18 maybe I’ll go for one of your nice fiberglass sailboxes. - Cheers, Brett I’ve been very happy with my cradles they are great, and also with your support. I was planning on doing it a more complicated way, so I’m glad I asked. Thanks for the installation tip and the great fastener (Albany County Fasteners) website for the low profile stainless steel nylon lock nuts. I also intend on using the front ones for my cat trak beach wheels. I have the HP cradles with the 2" groove on the front of my trailer not bolted down, and I have the HP swivel on the back. Pretty Work." - James Day - Sea Isle City, NJ As a former Biloxi Beach Hobie cruiser it was nice to see a Gulf Coast native working the trade. I also have my Blo-kart sails for off season blo-kart cruising stored in my sailbox. I have chairs, umbrellas, beach toys and life vest and all my sails all tucked away, so all I need to bring down to the shore is a small ice chest. "I sure do dig my new Sail Boat Box from Kenny and it only cost a little more than what a carpenter friend was going to charge me. I wanted a big box for sailing in the Atlantic off Sea Isle City New Jersey.

On top of the great product, it is also nice to see Kenny at the races and be able to ask about his products or how to best mount the cradles or boxes." - Connor Gaston The cradles look great and should keep my new boat well secured on the trailer. Ordering the cradles was very easy with just a phone call or an email.
"Got my H16 cradles from Kenny and they are much better than any of the other cradles I have seen on boat trailers. They fit the hull shape of the H16 perfectly. They feel very solid on the trailer and they keep the boat centered on the trailer very well. Thanks Kenny for building a beautifully constructed sailbox in the USA with outstanding customer service." - Marc Bachman Hobie 16 He also installed a beautiful locking mechanism which secures all the sailing gear.

Kenny was able to design and install padding for the bottom of box so all the items would not shift around while trailering. The fit and finish of the new state of the art standard style sailbox is a masterpiece! The sailbox holds all my H-16 sails, boom, rudders, tillers, and miscellaneous gear to regattas securely and safely.
