Mirage Glide retrofit into an '09 Revo - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I have an old hobie with the cam knobs. I converted my v1 mirage drive to v2, then converted the v2 to the glide. It fits my kayak just fine, no need to cut.

Hey Thanks for the reply. I ended up finding a blog where a Hobie Tech advocated cutting the guide knobs off newer drives when inserting into some old Hobies without guide grooves, so I did it. It works great now. Now I can go to Gonzaga Bay! (If those 2 systems steer clear...)
