Hello,

I'm examining purchasing this used tandem (for a price lower than what is listed), but the seller bought it from a friend of his and doesn't know what year or model it is. It looks to be a great condition, but I can't place the year either. by the pedals shape. Perhaps someone on this forum can?

I will inspect it for any damage before purchasing, but the seller seems to be very sincere and upfront about how he got it and why he's selling it (uses his small boat more). Another other tips on what i should look out for in used hobie?

Thank you in advance. I look forward to contributing to this forum if i do end of purchasing this kayak. :) or another hobie kayak. :D

Would be an early Tandem / Oasis. Prior to 2007 based on the rudder type.

It is similar to the current Oasis: https://www.hobie.com/kayaks/mirage-oasis/

No pages of older information are on our site.

That kayak is in really good shape! It is the predecessor to the Oasis, just called the “Mirage Tandem” at the time. It is a great kayak. The only thing I didn’t like is the sailing mast receiver is under the front seat so you could really only use the sail kit solo.

You can read more about it here at the wayback machine:
