Unique features of your
Hobie Mirage kayak
Sit-on-top Design
The Hobie kayaks open-top
cockpit allows the paddler to
enter and exit the kayak easily
from the shore, dock or water.
Scupper hole(s) make the kayak
self-bailing. The design also
eliminates the need to perform
an Eskimo roll (advanced kayak
technique). The contoured seat is
fitted with an adjustable backrest
for added comfort. The multiple
footwells allow you to adjust your
seating position when not using
the pedal system.
Hull Design
The long center keel area
encourages the kayak to track
straight when pedaling, paddling
or coasting. Under moderate load
conditions, the wider shoulder
area of the hull rides high at the
surface of the water without
compromising speed.
If the kayak is fully loaded with
gear or is being used in rough
conditions, the shoulder areas
provide secondary buoyancy and
stability.
Hobie Mirage Drive
This unique patented propulsion
system was designed by Greg
Ketterman. Greg has designed
several innovative water products
including the award-winning
Hobie TriFoiler. The Hobie
Mirage Drive efficiently converts
a simple fore-and-aft pedal
motion into forward speed.
Graphics
Graphics are molded in, assuring
that they will not peel or flake off
during the life of your kayak.
