Post subject: | 2002 hobie mirage tandem and turbo fins |
Hello all, I’m new to the board. I have a 2002 Hobie mirage tandem that I love to use and have taken very good care of. I’m curious to know if any of the turbo fins or 180 mirage drive systems will fit into the mirage drive wells on my 2002 mirage tandem. Thanks in advance. |

Save your $$$. They're not much better than factory size. |

There are Turbo fins that fit your drives. The 180 can fit by removing alignment pins. The Turbos do offer more power and a possible slower cadence. |

The benefits of turbo fins become much more noticeable on longer kayaks due to the increased theoretical hull speeds. Peter |
