hobie outback
 

would like to know if anyone knows what year is this hobie outback I'm going to check out before I buy it...it's the hobie mirage outback and it only has a hatch in the back and the front of the kayak, it's the peddle drive also

I don't see a pic...?

But you might want to take a Look Here for some information.
Early Model Outbacks were also affected by drive well cracks.

Also keep in mind the hobie bait tank wont fit in the older models where there's a cooler insert in the rear.
