Post subject: | 2018 PA17T - 3D transducer & fear trailer cradle |
Hey there I’m a relatively new kayak fisherman. I’m loving it - and my PA17! I am almost fully kitted out and enjoy fighting fish close to the water. I currently have a Raymarine Dragonfly Fishfinder, but I’m seriously thinking of upgrading to the Element 9 for the 3D imaging. I am also going to sort out my trailer so it carries and stores the kayak in an optimal way. I am looking at getting a set of cradles and a number of rollers, so as to make loading and unloading on my own a possibility. My question is this: Have Hobie modified the design of the PA17T cradles to accommodate the side scanning transducers? I know the brand new kayaks have a retractable transducer carrier, but my kayak doesn’t. If the rear cradle is not going to work, I may as well fashion some PU piping as opposed to the Hobie cradles, although I would prefer to run the cradles. Thanks in advance for knowledge and suggestions! Dave |

The cradles have not changed. You would lift up and over the cradle if your have a transducer under the hull. Our plates are all flush. |

Great thank you - it’s not a huge problem to do so I guess! ![]() Just one more thing - can you please tell me the shipping weight for these things? The Hobie order number is: 72020404 I would like to work out the shipping costs you see. Thanks |
