Frequently Asked Questions
How can I replace the screw-in fittings (if equipped)?
You may find it necessary to replace some of the padeyes
or hooks if they are damaged. To replace them, follow the
instructions below.
1. Drill two 3/16” holes opposite one
another on the top surface of the screw-
in fitting. Be careful not to go all the way
through the part and into the kayak.
2. Insert the two prongs of a pair of
needle nose pliers into the two holes
and rotate the part counterclockwise.
3. Grip the new part with your pliers
and install it into the hole. Be sure to
put a little pressure into the hole so that
the threads on the new part install in
properly.

Is my boat repairable?
Hobie kayaks are very durable; however, on occasion they
may need some minor repairs. Linear polyethylene is repair-
able. Check with your dealer concerning repairs for your
kayak.
What is the best way to use the scupper plugs?
The scupper plugs are useful when
you would like to keep the inside of
your boat dry and is most helpful
in calmer water conditions. Simply
press the plug firmly into the scupper
hole from the top side of the boat. To
prevent loss of the plugs, lanyards are
provided with the plugs so that you can
attach them to the boat.
