I travelled to New York to document and record media on the first ever Freedom Launcher install on a Hobie PA 14. Many thanks to Scott Beattie for inviting me to the party and being a very gracious host. Scott put up with me and my random stories for the better part of two days. We ended up getting the job done from around 8:30am - 4:30pm on a Friday. Along the way, I found a few tweaks that will make the next Hobie PA14 install go easier.
Here are some pics of our adventure together.

Tight lines y'all.
