But how do you guys secure your Mirage Drive?? Other stuff will be in hatches. Thanks for help.
Get 7 footers in front hatch with the reels on. You need to twist the rod when you get to the reel . When you only have the butt of rod remaining you have to try and flex the rod with a good amount of pressure. If nothing else, place reels in dry bag. Do yourself a favor. Spend 100$- 120$ On some Hobie leashes at 20$ a pop. Well worth investment in comparison to a new drive or rod and reel.
