Looks good. Maybe they'll make that hatch standard in next year's model.

That's way better than the round hatch. Nice modification.

I do know that the new outback LE comes standard with the square hatch, but you definitely pay for it. I do think that hobie should get rid of the round hatch for the outbacks. But hobie is in it for the business and any aftermarket upgrade after the fact makes them money. |

Hobie parts and upgrades are way way overpriced in my opinion. Every time I shop there it feels like in going to Costco 4 items 100$ minimum no matter how small the part is

I upgraded my hatch as soon as I bought my 15'. You'll be so happy you did it, trust me. By far the best upgrade I can probably make to my outback. Looks good!

I heard modding the center hatch to a rectangular one voids the warranty. Is that true? Pretty lame if it is.

Maybe someone from OEX can chime in on this one but I don't see that being fair at all. Reason being is the new outback limited editions come with the square hatch pre-installed. So in my opinion that eliminated any kind of question about the structural integrity of the upgrade. However, if it is true about the warranty, I wouldn't advertise that I had the mod if I have a problem with things such as my drive, rudder, etc. What does a square hatch have to do with those things? |
