2015 Hobie Outback

[BassMoore]

ive looked at trading down the PA.. but i just cant find anything else thats going to allow me to fish the way i want to fish.

im only 26 so right now the PA is fine for me.

The outback deff looks cool, and is a good option for ALOT of people. even the Slayer propel is a great option ive look at that non stop.

i just cant pull the trigger to get rid of the PA..

i was just asking.

no biggie
the outback looks cool

i have a small bed pick up i toss my pa into.. \

but the outback is deff a cool option for all around

Yeah man. I don't know...maybe come down to VA beach area sometime and I will see if can keep up when I get the outback. Bed of the truck is not bad for that one, but I have to lift all the way to a ladder rack since I keep a toolbox on my truck and usually other stuff in the bed that might slide out. It is mainly the weight of the PA for me with a bad back. And the outback is a lot less money also. It is already way more than I want to spend on a kayak.

johne do u think the outback is faster then the PA??

ive blown a few outbacks away in my pa12.

With the new drive and turbo fins I doubt it is that much slower. But I can't deal with the size of the PA anyway...needing a trailer to haul a yak around is not for me. I will gladly deal with a little hull slap for all the advantages the outback will have for my needs.

Yeah, I was pricing a 2014 at around $1800 last weekend, but seat is not great and no place to stand.

I must have finally gotten my backside broken in, I used to get sore after 4-5 hours of sitting on my Outback...now it doesn't even phase me to be on the water for 6-7 hours. Goody picked up a staduim cushion for me, because I was complaining and I haven't even tried it yet.

I'll join outback team when they fix the hull slap!!

I do like to stand fishing flats and for snakeheads too. It is also nice to be able to get off the seat for a minute. I out for 6-8 hours at a time pretty frequently. Not exactly any place to get out and stretch your legs out at cbbt and places like that. Many people have been waiting for a pedal yak with a place to stand that is not huge beast like the PA. I hardly see it as defeating the purpose. As was mentioned earlier...outback will be better than PA in certain ways now that ypu can stand. I would never own a PA but new outback looks 1 yak to do it all...Fast, stable, room to stand, light enough to load on my ladder rack easily, high weight capacity, good quality hatches...etc.

I was going to keep my ride because I can stand on it, but I guess I will be getting rid of that and my tarpon soon.

Do you actually stand to fish? It kinda defeat the purpose of pedal kayak since you can't pedal standing up. I stand to fish for SH sometimes but I don't see me standing to fish in the bay.

Ok. Thanks. It is actually more like $500 more at current prices I have seen.

The 2013 Revo13 and Outback models were $1799, the 2014 jumped up to $1999. I don't know what the current prices are, maybe they have discounted them already?

[deleonjo]

Dennis said that they actually have a second batch of 60 already in the pipe. The numbers probably include other models as well like the adventure island, etc. But, maybe not.

Official price-$2299 for the Outback

[JohnE]

Yeah, you guys better sell the old ones pretty quick. I have seen brand new 2014s going for around $1,800 already and price might drop more soon.
