My modifications to Hobie Lynx. I installed the Lynx H rails, H rails from a newer Outback, using only one rail across the bow. Length was cut down so as to screw into two of the four preset holes. I did this to mount a rod holder and stow my paddle under it. I used two tie wraps as loops to make it easier to secure/remove the rear seat to the kayak. Attached a loop using stretch cord to secure my rudder to the rudder cables, I got tired of removing the rudder after every trip, this way the wind will not blow it around. Lastly I purchased a seat riser kit from a cool guy in Navarre Beach, raised the front one inch, the the rear one and half inches. I am selling the 180 drive that came with it, never used as I use the Hobie with kick up fins. Tell us your modifications. |

Why is it you don't like the 180 drive? Is it just that you already had a non-reversable drive and were fine without the reversing feature? |

Probably easiest way to do it is to open a free account at this site https://postimg.cc . Your pictures can be uploaded to this site. You then click on the pic and click share, then click on Hotlink For Forums and paste that into the post here. |

Why is this site so difficult to post pictures? I belong to other forums and all of them are easy. |
