Post subject: | How to find spec, year made, measure a hobie kayak |
Hi am new to the form and new to kayaking... I brought a hobie, was told a mirage outback but plate for the serial # has been gone so I have the following question maybe that way i can find the year and model. 1. how to measure the length of the kayak, nose to tail without the rudder? I measure mine that way it's 139 inches. so it's 11'6" no mirage fits that length. 2. once I find the year who do I find spec of it, it seems like there is no where on hobie.com to find spec for older model and perhaps picture of each model so i can compare. Thanks in advance. Jon |

First find the serial number. There is no "plate" to be lost. It is hand engraved in each hull. https://www.hobie.com/articles/boat-ser ... cation,15/ If an older Outback, you can see old version of websites on Wayback Machine. https://web.archive.org/web/20180709153042/https://www.hobie.com/kayaks/mirage-outback/ Outback (does not sound like the Outback as it is longer): SPECIFICATIONS * Crew: 1 Length: 12' 1" / 3.68 m Width: 33" / .84 m Capacity: 400 lbs / 181 kg Fitted Hull Weight: 81 lbs / 37 kg * Fully Rigged Weight: 99 lbs / 45 kg * Hull Construction: Rotomolded Polyethylene |
