Good old Gray! How's he doing- Haven't seen him in awhile-

He is correct- the "old" P 18 is I believe ~330 lbs. rigged- Seems like most of the extra 30 lbs. over the 16 is in the mast!

The P 18-2 (centerboard model) is slightly heavier- Maybe ~350 lbs.?? Hobies used to be heavier than the "comparable" Prindle but had much more sail area to compensate for the weight difference (P 18 has ~ same sail area as the H 16 for example) and the H 18 has boards too of course (compared to the "old" P 18).
