Designed in 1981 by Ron Holder and built by Hobie Cat, there are over 5000 Holder 12’s sailing and over two dozen active racing fleets in the United States.

With its free standing cat-boat rig and retractable dagger board, the Holder 12 features a long waterline yet weighs only 115 pounds. This makes it a fast and responsive addition to the Yacht Club racing fleet.

The best way to describe the Holder 12 is that it is light, fast and fun, just like the Junior Yacht Club. The Lake Arrowhead Yacht Club Holder Fleet was started in 1986. Sailors of all ages race in this boat.
