Any chance that Hobie will offer orange as a color choice in the future? I loved the orange yak color offered before and I think it offers good on-water visibilty - the biggest hazard is getting run over by a powerboater and the fish don't care... |

Since it was dropped for lack of real interest... not likely / Yellow? |

Hi Matt If a customer was willing to wait, would Hobie do a special order multi color ? |

Multi color? Not likely due to concerns about mixing different colors together. This effects strength. |

Thanks Matt,  are the multi color hulls that are in different brands of kayaks weaker than a single color?I would have thought the plastic would have been the same just a different color pigment, and that the powders used would blend/melt the same, interesting. |

Matt - is it possible to special order a kayak in orange? Not multi, all one shade. I really liked the orange color. |

I don't make those decisions... but I have seen custom (discontinued color) orders come through. If we had the material... might be possible. Start with a dealer. They can contact our sales department. |

Matt - thanks. I am a commercial real estate broker, so perhaps when I finally sell something....
