Used Hobie 14 jibs are pretty hard to find in any condition. They usually go for about $150 on eBay, but if you can find someone willing to sell it on a different forum, you might do better.

I don't plan on racing the boat with the jib and Hooter. Not only is it just too much to handle so the tramp is completely covered in line, but the jib supposedly doesn't help you. I took the pictures of the boats with the jib up just to see what all that sail area looked like. It's pretty nuts.
