Hobie Kayaks Outback

More Details

The Hobie Kayaks Outback is a premium fishing kayak powered by the Mirage Drive 180 system with Kick Up Fins. This fishing kayak has it all! The hull offers incredible stability whilst remaining efficient through the water with excellent glide yet with enough capability to take on open coastal waters and big inland lakes, lochs, and reservoirs. The Outback is designed for the serious angler wanting the best craft to take them on their kayak fishing adventures.

Of course, the Outback wouldn’t be a Hobie Mirage without the MD180 Pedal Drive powering it into wind and tide with ease. Equipped with Kick Up Fins. This latest innovation from Hobie provides worry-free pedalling as if you hit a submerged object the fins flip up out of harm's way, reducing the risk of damage. With the ability to select reverse and adjust for leg length, the revolutionary pedal drive system gets you to the fish fast.  Steering is made simple with dual steering controls located beside the seat, and the up/down control in the footwell.

Fitted with a CT-W seat offering plenty of width in the seating position to suit anglers of all sizes. The seat is completely adjustable for height, lumbar support and tilt so that you can get into a comfortable position for fishing all day long. In front of the seat the vertical rectangular hatch with gear bucket allows for easy tackle stowage and the large bow hatch will accommodate further gear such as a fold-up trolley.

Adding accessories to the Outback is made super easy thanks to a multitude of mounting options. A H-track Deluxe and H-rail system are installed either side of the cockpit for installation of additional rod holders, fish finder mounts and more. There is also storage space for tackle boxes and tools with a clever bungee gear leash system. In the rear well a similar H-track system allows for more mounting options and gear crate storage. On the underside you will find the Guardian Retractable transducer shield which allows for a fish finder transducer to be both protected with the option to retract side-scan transducer within the hull when launching and landing. A system of thru-hull cable seals are also fitted for easy installation of a fish finder unit.

The stern is fitted with an accessory rail on the end doubling up as a handle. This rail also allows the clever included stern loading protector to clip on and helps greatly when loading the kayak on a car roof.

There are so many new features on the Outback that it is impossible to list them all - Just give as a call and our staff will be be happy to talk you through them.
