New model year starts in September, so 2012 models were introduced on September 1st.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the 2012 revos are the first to have the Hobie logo badge on the front hatch cover. By 'badge', I don't mean the decal, but an actual embossed round thingy. (and it may actually be forward of the hatch cover.)

Correct. The badges are new for 2012 on most models. The Pro Angler had one already.

Mine had a stick-on badge - it wasn't inset into the hull, just stuck on. Not a decal, but a thick little badge. It lasted one trip.

Should have a recess for the badge. 2012 model? I'll send another. Just PM me.

No recess. Badge was small, about a dime size in diameter, and thick. Clear over black emblem.

Thanks for the offer, but it's not something that I'll miss - it doesn't exactly do anything - anybody that sees the boat knows it's a Hobie from the large logo emblazened on the side, not mention that when somebody sees you pedaling, I think they sort of know it's one of those unique Hobie craft.

Is there any reason for the new badge?

Does it cost any less than the older decal?

I personally think the badge looks a bit cheap and nasty and lacks the style of the decal...

I have a 2012 Revo 13 and don't think I have the recessed badge.

I got mine in Oct.
