Hobie 16 World Championships

The Hobie 16 World Championships is a bi-annual international sailing regatta for Hobie 16. The event was organized by the host club on behalf of the International Hobie Class Association and since 1987/88 recognized by World Sailing, the sports IOC recognized governing body.

The Hobie 16 Worlds are unusual as the boats are almost always supplied by the organisers/builders this means the class unlike most has a restricted number of entries. This is typical 48 with entries larger this meaning the running of a qualification series before the event. With stand alone female and masters held around the open World Championships utilising the same fleet of charter boats. The class also has a history of not holding regatta at pinnacle yacht clubs but instead finding venue such as hotel and bringing in the race management expertises.
