Frankly I wonder if I could order the parts and build it myself? Sounds kind of fun.
I've been happy to have a second drive, it has saved a NUMBER trips for me and my guests in Baja. NEVER hurts to have a back up. BTW I love my 180 might be the best Hobie purchase ever. Being able to get in tight to the cliffs and fish the shore line is key to the cabrilla down here and the ability to reverse out upon hook up helps the capture rate. Tight Lines.
