HOBIE, HOBIE, HOBIE
 

Hobie will replace my warranteed 2011 Outback with a 2015 Outback hull w/one year warrantee for a little over $500. The short warrantee is because the 2011's is almost gone. This is great news, I still have to buy the NEW Vantage seat but I wind up getting the NEW 2015 for about a grand!!!! Talk about GREAT customer service, waiting to see how long it will be, but I get to use the old one until the new one is ready. Could never ask a company for more or better service. THANK YOU HOBIE!

Your gonna love the 2015

what was wrong with the 2011?

There was a small crack, leaking water in the drive well. Below the water line.

So it's costing you a grand to get a kayak repaired under warranty.. such a deal! :rolleyes:

YES Alan a 4 year old kayak, a HOBIE, this Mercedes has caught THOUSANDS of fish, for about $250 a YEAR! That to me is a steal to replace, NOT REPAIR it for under a GRAND. Might just be karma? Oh half of that is the NEW VANTAGE seat.

Bob, if you make it down to abre this year, I see you doing circles around me In the estuary already.

hey bob i have the 2015 hobie its my first kayak and my last its that awesome.seat is comfortable as heck ,fish finder installation super easy to do,really awesome yak.

right? That's an awesome deal!! Especially when you consider the fact that the kayak was 4years old and had a seat that sucked. Now Bob has a new kayak with a killer seat and he only paid a $1k. That's what I call A++ customer service:luxhello::luxhello:

hobie makes great products and good upkeep, and a very small warranty window.



Its always a great company when they can take more money out of you and make you feel all good inside.


hope you get to keep your old mirage drive for that price!

Frank, did you buy your Trident new or used?

I would put Hobies warranty against any other kayak warranty, of course I keep the old drive, but my wife got me a new Blue fin for christmas, so I have two drives for it, gives me a spare when we go to Baja. Again karma? What goes around, comes around?

Haters going to hate.:the_finger: pedal on.....

Haters gonna hate hahaha pick on the old guy on big water's edge right!


Good deal$$ .... don't let the jealous, salty dogs keep you from posting. I say keep :reeling: and :the_finger: to all that hate.

don't worry torqeedo motors, they make you pay for everything... too and I still keep going to them lol

One hell of a deal. Forget what the others say. Hobie makes a great product and there is a reason there is a cult following. Me included. You would be crazy not to jump on that deal!! Good on you!!!!!

Hobie comes thru again! Im glad hobie took care of you bob!

I like the Thresher, but I bought it for surf launches as it is great for that. But I have owned 5 Hobies so far and they are still my GO TO for most trips.

Told you so:D Great news!

On the shelf
 

Looks like the thrasher will be put on the shelf, or maybe you can leave it in Baja so you don't have to haul a yak back and forth. If so you can ow ride down there with me.
