• Powered by MirageDrive 180 - The ungainly paddle is replaced by the sheer efficiency of the MirageDrive 180, the original pedal kayak drive. With the largest human muscle group now in play, kayaking becomes easier and more efficient than ever.
• Spacious Deck Layout with Vertical Hatch - Everything you need at your fingertips. Dual H-Track Deluxes with H-Rail boast the ultimate in accessory mounting, customization and organization. EVA deck pads provide a cushioned standing area and sound dampening. The vertical rectangular hatch easily opens for more tackle storage and includes a bottle opener for cold beverage enjoyment.
• Redesigned Bow - Piercing bow helps cut effortlessly through the water, wind, wake, and chop while reducing hull slap. Reflective bow graphics provide an added safety feature. Extra large bow compartment makes storage easy and accessible.
• Guardian Retractable Transducer Shield - Retractable Shield protects transducer on impact and retracts away for transport. Built-in transducer mount allows side scanning for optimal fishfinder performance. Pre-installed thru-hull cable plugs allow quick, no-drill, no-glue fishfinder installation. ALL NEW for 2019.
• Kick-Up Rudder - The Kick-Up Rudder locks in to place when you need it and retracts on impact. A large carrying handle makes transport a breeze while providing the perfect mount for your GoPro. The stern is also Power-Pole ready with pre-drilled inserts.

FAQs

I want to buy this kayak and get out on the water. Do I really just add it to my cart?

Yup. Really, that's it. A growing portion of our customers just place their orders online. Can be faster and easier and less hassle than emails and phone calls. We don't mind either way, but once the order is in our system, then we get to work. As a summary, depending on stock status displayed on the kayak when you add to cart, we might start packaging it right away. Sometimes we have to wait for certain components - but our logistics team will start working on the delivery of your kayak from our warehouses to your shipping address. We'll package all the accessories, and then decide on the method of shipping. We have our own delivery van and trailer that handles a lot of the West Coast. We use contracted private drivers for places further away from us, and then we also use some normal shipping companies. You really don't have to worry about anything, that's our job. We line up the best option and then once the boat is ready, off it goes to you. It's not dissimiliar to ordering large appliances online - same processes with our own attention to detail to make sure it's as simple and transparent from order to delivery.

How much is shipping and how long does it take?

Your new Hobie Kayak will ship to your door with rates starting at $235. You will find this shipping method when adding your address in the shopping cart. Please contact us for rates outside the US. Each kayak's expected lead time is available as part of the product options right above the add to cart button (after you select any color options, if available). As some general guidance though, delivery times depend on stock status, your location and the size of your boat. For the majority of our kayaks that are in stock - they can be ready to ship in as little as 48 hours. That said, on average it's usually at least a week from order, to ‘ready for shipping to customer’.

How do you support your customers, especially if I buy a kayak randomly on your site?

More good news for you. Since we're a very specialized business, we've got 15+ staff, 4 of them on the customer support/care side. We've got a Kayaks@WestCoastSailing.net email specifically for support over the life of your product. You can also can call or text us at 1-503-285-5536. We're here to help!
