Post subject:  Outback rigging questions
Will the 2019 Hobie Outback fit the 36" Hobie fish bag on the bow?
I'm sure the dimensions are the same for 2018 too.

Can you run the Hobie V2 live well and the side kick floats at the same time?
Not sure if the sidekick uses the scupper holes.

How does everyone manage using the landing gear wheels and the livewell since they both need the same scuppers?
I guess just move everything around while standing in the water, but maybe there's a better way?


Thanks!

Will the 2019 Hobie Outback fit the 36" Hobie fish bag on the bow? Yes, there is room for the Large Fish Bag/Soft Cooler will fit up on the bow. I'd recommend mounting some padeyes and attaching the d-rings on the bag to those via slim carabiner clips.

Can you run the Hobie V2 live well and the side kick floats at the same time? Yes, you have to take care to install the center bar for the sidekicks directly over the firewall behind the seat, leaving room to plug the Livewell V2 into the scuppers.

How does everyone manage using the landing gear wheels and the livewell since they both need the same scuppers? There are scuppers in the center of the 2019 Outback, allowing you to use a plug-in cart with a livewell installed. Since the livewell is strapped in, simply tip the kayak on its side and plug the cart into the center scuppers, and then right the kayak again. If you're offloading from a truck bed with a livewell already installed, I would recommend sliding the kayak part of the way off the bed and resting the nose or stern on the ground leaving room to insert the cart posts. Insert the cart into the center scuppers and use the cart keeper pin. Slide the kayak the rest of the way off the truck bed and right onto the wheels.
