Hobie Bravo Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this one of the simplest boats you sell?
A: You got it. From assembly out of the box, to days where you're going sailing, the Bravo is probably one of the simplest boats made and sold today.
Q: Are there any accessories I need?
A: Honestly no - just add water
Q: How do I transport the Bravo?
A: A lot of our customers just use a multipurpose flatbed trailer (we sell these but many use the Home Depot version, which is generally fine). We also sell a Trailex Aluminum trailer for the Bravo (which is overkill, really)
