nice job by the way
Well...this is actually our second outiftter. Hobie gave us a new one about a year ago after we experienced the same problem. Keeping the mirage-drive fasteners tight helps prolong the life of the plastic area supporting the mirage drive, the problem still ultimately returns on their older models. I'm told the newer models have much stronger support for the mirage drives, but I'll guess I'll know for sure if Hobie gives us a third kayak. Hopefully the new models hold up under frequent use. I'm considering purchasing a bilge pump for our next kayak...
