Sure did, I just put the hulls and tramp together today and got the trailer all set up.
Getting a boat in a box was quite exciting but, it's a hell of a lot of work. Tomorrow I'm going to get the mast set up. Then hit the road back to Atlanta. Sunday inviting friends over and figuring out all the running rigging. I still have a big box of lines to figure out where they go, part of the directions are still in French. Hobie Europe builds a very quality boat. I am very happy with the workmanship. I measured out the boat while framing it up and it aligned perfect with no adjustment needed. My old H18 hulls had some waves and other factory imperfections in it. The tiger hull has almost no imperfections at all. One of the three boats did have bolt holes just a bit too tight. We had numbered boat before we opened up so no one would have to pick a boat if it had problems. I hope to have the boat set up to sail next weekend. And it looks like a trip to the Steeple Chase around Key Largo is panning out too.
