I dont mind buying the hobie anchor trolley kit, I just dont want to drill holes in my kayak.

Is there a way to install an anchor trolley on a Hobie Outback without drilling any holes?

Thanks,

Twin

I was nervous about drilling holes when I first starting fishing out of a kayak, but after a while, you get used to it. I just drilled the four holes for the two pad-eyes and bolted it in. It is fine. I made sure the holes were above the water-line.

It's not yours till you drill some holes in it.

Before you drill any holes, make sure you are not going to hit one of the cables inside the hull!
