Sorry, but latest info puts the availability at mid-2015. Still awaiting final details from the production facility and then long lead time after that. More when we know more.


Any more details on the projected release? And when you said mid-2015, I'm guessing you mean calendar year, e.g. summer with deliveries pushing into fall?

We are now hoping for June arrival here. Port delays are the big issue now though. Predicting deliveries (even after the arrive in Long Beach) has become impossible. We still are awaiting multiple containers that are just sitting up there.

Did Hobie address the issues that plagued the original livewell? It corrosion of parts (ie. The switch in 8gallons of saltwater and not sealed), difficulty priming, faulty seals, etcetera?

Huh?... Where did that come from? List price is $419.00 USA / USD

Ahhh Australia? Straight conversion to AUS $ today would be $523 add Distributor transfer costs, freight to OZ, Duty, Taxes...
