MANUAL

WELCOME TO THE

HOBIE WAY OF LIFE

Congratulations on the purchase of your new HOBIE Getaway and welcome to the HOBIE® sailing family. The HOBIE

Getaway cannot be outgrown. It can be sailed by children up through senior citizens. A single adult can sail it at top

performance - and a crew of four can cruise in comfort.

We offer this manual as a guide to increased safety and enjoyment of your new boat. The purpose of this publication is to

provide easy, simple and accurate instructions on how to get your Getaway ready for the water. Please read them carefully

and familiarize yourself with the boat and all of the parts spread before you.

Whether you are a new sailor or a veteran of many years, we recommend that you read this thoroughly before your first sail

and TRY IT OUR WAY FIRST! If you are new to sailing, this manual alone is not intended to teach you how to sail. There are

many excellent books, videos and courses on the safe handling of small sailboats. We suggest that you contact your local

sailboat dealer, college or Coast Guard Auxiliary for recommendations.

Watch for overhead wires whenever you are rigging, launching, sailing or trailering with the mast up. CONTACT OF THE

MAST WITH POWER LINES COULD BE FATAL! Be certain that the rigging area and the area that you will be sailing in are

free of overhead power lines. Report any such power lines to your local power authority and sail elsewhere.

We take pride in presenting the Getaway to you and hope that you'll take as much pride in owning her.

Fair winds and good sailing!

This assembly manual takes you step-

by-step through the setting-up and

sailing of your new HOBIE Getaway.

This manual will help you understand

each part in detail.

center (graphics down), as shown above. A tarpoline or pads

under the hull may be desirable if the ground surface is rough.

Place the hulls about seven feet apart.

CROSSBARS AND

TRAMPOLINES

The forward and main

trampolines are rolled

onto the front crossbar.

Position the crossbar

between the hulls near

the forward cross bar

sleeve in each hull.

The Bow Spreader Bar

has slides, eye straps,

bridle wires (2) and the

roller furler installed.

Position it near the

recesses on each bow.

Remove the bolt that is

threaded into the

plastic block on each

end of the Bow

Spreader Pole.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

KNOTS TO USE

FIGURE 8 KNOT BOWLINE KNOT HALYARD KNOT CLEATING OFF A LINE

1. 2.

FIGURE 8 KNOT

AT END OF LINE

Main Beam with Trampoline

The rear crossbar has the main sheet traveler car and swivel

cam cleat installed. Position it near the aft crossbar sleeve in

each hull.

Note: There is one plug in the rear of each hull. These plugs

are used to drain the hulls. The plugs should be in place

before sailing. Remove the plugs after sailing to drain any

water that may have leaked into the hulls. It is best to travel

with and store the boat with the plugs removed to allow for

pressure changes due to heating, cooling and altitude

changes. This will prevent warping of the hull surface.

Slide the other hull onto

the crossbars until the

hulls come in contact

with the stop plates

(located on the

underside of the main

and aft crossbars).

Lifting one hull, or the

other, at the rear can

help align the socket

for the forward

spreader bar.

Using a cross bar as a lever arm, pull the hull to an upright

position so that the crossbars are horizontal.

Insert the crossbars into one hull. See

that the crossbars seat fully into their

sockets in the hull.

Unroll the trampolines from the forward crossbar. Slide the

main trampoline bolt ropes into the hull trampoline tracks.

Soapy water can be used as a lubricant (Do not use an oil or

silicon lubricant on the trampoline track or the bolt rope).

Sliding the bolt rope into the track is a 2 person job. One

person should pull the trampoline and the other feed the bolt

rope into the track.

Be sure the

forward

spreader is fully

seated in both

hulls.

Re-Install the screws

into each end form

the outside of the

hull. Do not over

tighten or compress

the plastic hull

material.

Carefully feed the

trampoline into the tracks.

Continue to feed the

trampoline equally on both

sides.

As the trampoline becomes more

difficult to feed, Alternate from one

side to the other keeping the

trampoline somewhat even. You can

sit or lay on the trampoline to stretch

it a bit.

Work your way across the

trampoline to the other

side, then tie off with half

hitches.

Pass the line through the

grommet in the trampoline.

Pass the line back through the

eyelet, then over to the first

slide. Pass the line to the first

cutout and around the rod.

Then back to the first slide.

Continue to each slide and

cutout across the tramp.

Come back to the starting

point and begin tightening

the lace line to pull the

trampoline tight.

After both main trampoline halves are in place, but not laced,

install the forward trampoline following the same technique as

with the main. Except, because the forward trampoline is one

piece, it is necessary to

alternate from side to side

while feeding it into the

tracks.

Once the forward

trampoline is

nearly all the way

into the track it

may be

necessary to use

the Bow

Spreader Pole for

leverage to pull it taught. Tie a lace line to the grommet. Wrap

the line around the beam and then pass it back through the

grommet again. This will create a 3:1 purchase to help pull the

trampoline forward. Once again, alternate from side to side to

keep the trampoline even. Carefully feed at the opposite end

to prevent the trampoline from getting wedged in the track

opening. Pull the trampoline all the way tight.

LACE FORWARD TRAMPOLINE - Slide

the longer (of the two provided) lace rod

into the forward trampolines pocket. Tie

the lace

line to the

eyelet.

LACE MAIN TRAMPOLINE - Tie a bowline knot to the forward

left/port grommet in the

trampoline.

Pass the line through the

opposite grommet, top/down

and then through the lacing

flap.

Come up through the next

(left) grommet and then

continue to lace towards

the aft of the trampoline

following this pattern

(down through the right

grommets and up through

the left grommets). Keep

the laces loose at this time. Lace as far aft as the line will go.

Locate the aft lace rod. Feed

the rod through the rear pocket

as shown. Center the rod, from

left to right, in the pocket.

Locate the aft lace lines. Tie

to the rear grommets using a

long looped bowline as shown

(left and right sides).

Let the tramp hang below the aft

crossbar. Pull the lace lines under

the cross bar and tight. Begin the

aft lacing by routing the left line up

and over the first lace peg.

Cross over to the next peg

then down and around the

rod. Pull the lace line tight

then up and over the peg

and then over to the next

one and so on... Then

start with the right side

and work towards the

center.

Image to left shows the proper

routing of the lace lines around

rod and peg.

When you reach the center,

the pattern must be changed

slightly. Pass up and over the

last peg, before the center, and then down around the rod in

the gap between tramp halfs. Then, come up and through the

trampoline grommet on the

opposite side. Once tied off

loosely at the center, cinch the

line tight from each side working

towards the center.

Tie off to the main

trampoline grommets just

forward of the aft cross

bar.

Once the aft lace is tight, begin

cinching the center lace tight

from forward to aft. You will

notice that as you get the

trampoline tight you will have

more lace line aft to complete the

lacing.

Work your way aft until the entire trampoline is

tight. Tie off the line with a few half hitches.

Tuck the lace flap into the

opposite side lace line. The

flap will help keep you drier

while sailing and keep lines

from slipping into the water

between the laces.

Insert the upper section into the lower section. *We

recommend that the upper

section be bonded into the lower

section with epoxy. The mast

can be used without bonding the

upper section into the lower to

make storage easier if desired.

Install the mast float to the upper

mast section as shown. Be sure

the blunt end of the float is facing

forward towards blunt side of the

mast. You may have to loosen

the bracket bolts that pass

through the mast head to get the

screws aligned in the float.

Pass the halyard line through the

mast head from rear (track side) to

front. Pull both ends of the halyard

down the mast and tie off at the

halyard cleat on the side of the

mast near the base.

MAST ASSEMBLY

To step the mast upright, position the

mast base next to the mast step ball.

The mast top and float should be

positioned to the rear of the boat in

the center of the rear crossbar. The

arrow stickers

on the mast and

main crossbar

must be aligned.

Turn the mast onto it’s side to align

the arrows.

MAST ASSEMBLY

WARNING!!

The lower section of the mast is aluminum

and displays warnings against assembling and sailing

near overhead wires and

power lines. The upper

section is fiberglass and is

designed to help prevent

injury that can occur if the

mast does contact a high

power line. Before raising the

mast, check that you are in a

safe area and always

remember this warning.

* Getaway mast extrusion to CompTip assembly

(normally performed by dealer prior to delivery)

The purpose is to bond the two section together and

seal out water. This will also keep the joint in proper

alignment. This can affect sail shape if the fit

becomes loose.

Use some masking tape or the like, and mask off the

area above and below the joint to make clean up

easier. Also block off the luff tracks to prevent glue

from bridging the sail openings due to excess glue

oozing out of the joint.

Be prepared to use force during the insertion. Air

trapped inside the joint can prevent easy insertion.

(The small black cap just below the joint can be

removed and an air-release path can be poked

through the foam if needed.) Place the mast on saw

horses or blocks. Place the base of the mast against

a solid, padded object.

Apply the bonding agent to the inside and outside of

the mating sections. Fit the two parts together as far

as possible. If force is required, hold the upper

section and pull the entire assembly a few inches

away from the “solid object” (wall, tree, post) slide

the assembly up against the “solid object” with some

force. When the mast assembly (base) contacts the

“solid object” the inertia will help slide the CompTip

(upper section) deeper into the lower section.

Repeat as many times as necessary to fully seat the

sections together.

Prop the mast up so that the track is straight up and

then sight down the length with your eye to check the

alignment at the joint. Straighten if necessary.

Remove masking tape before glue dries.

Allow bonding agent to dry.
