I recently had a Revolution Hull replaced under warranty, but the new replacement hull has a curve to the left near the bow. I definitely think its curved enough to affect the tracking of the boat in the water. I have not put the new hull in the water yet, and I'm kind of bummed I have a curved kayak. Has anyone else noticed any abnormality in their hulls, any curves near the bow ? I have held off on any rigging until I get some feed back as to the Hulls condition. |

Probably ought to think about calling Hobie tech support and ask them what you should do. Maybe you got a bad one and they will just replace it "again"? |

This could be a slight sunken area near the bow that makes it appear to bend to one side. Possible and most likely... and if so, easily corrected. Never heard of a bend that altered steering. Contact your dealer first and foremost with this type of concern. That is why they are there. |
