  • The Hilu outrigger is a personal size, beach launched sports boat in the sailing canoe style. Hilu was AMF's production version of a boat variety more commonly found in designs hand built by outrigger aficionados. Hilu utilizes fiberglass pontoons and carries a single polyester lateen sail mounted to an un-stayed aluminum mast. Unlike most of the sailboats in their catalog, the Hilu was commissioned by and expressly designed for AMF. Hilu is the Hawaiian name for the Black Striped Wrasse, a species of reef fish, apparently alluding to the Polynesian heritage of the sailing canoe. This added yet another species to AMF's creel of sailboats named for oceanic wildlife. Disambiguation Note: After AMF acquired Alcort, Inc. in 1969 they named their sailboat product line the "Alcort Division", spring boarding off the strong name recognition Alcort, Inc. had built up over its twenty-four year history developing and marketing beach boats.
