Any reviews on the new Outback?

[Tigermidge]

Here is what I have been reading and seeing on YouTube.
It is FASTER, In Lakes it Kicks ASS.
Is the swell of the Pacific Ocean and in a wind YOU will be getting wet.
But if speed in important to you it might be worth it.
Also I love the look and use of all the H rails.
But My Outback kayak is only a year olden I need to use it 2000 more times to get my money worth.

Although I am thinking about upgrading to Side-scan sonar.

Have had several paddle kayaks, the revo was the first pedal kayak. So I have no comparison on the previous outback. Don’t imagine the new version is any wetter then the revo. and most likely dryer than my paddle kayaks. So many nice features on the Outback, I am going to pull the trigger. Guess I will have to provide the review down the road

I didnt see a reason why Hobie would decide to make the new one sit lower to the water line.

It is so it catches less wind, does not get pushed around as much......better drift fishing.


I have been out in the ocean twice in it, but conditions were super nice so no rough water testing yet.
