Sorry if this has already been asked, I searched and couldn't find any answers. I have been looking everywhere for replacement fins for my son's 2017 Outback. It has the V2 Mirage drive turbo fins. I cannot find them anywhere. Can you help me to find a set, or is there an alternative aftermarket set that will work (Trident, Vanhunks, HammerHead, etc)? My son is in the Navy and will be back in town for a few weeks, he has a passion for kayak fishing and I am trying to have it ready for him. One of the fins separated at the zig-zag connection, and the other is failing as well.

All, I am guessing by the high number of views and lack of suggestions that these replacement fins are not available anywhere. I hope that the acquisition by Bass Pro helps to resolve this in the near future. In the meantime, I went with the Hammerhead fins which fit the Hobie drive turbo masts perfectly. My son used the kayak twice, and said the Hammerheads were a great improvement over the torn hobie fins (they were torn pretty bad and were therefore not operating at normal efficiency). This will keep us in the water until the Hobie parts are available again! Just sharing this info so that others can learn from my experience. It is far too early to declare the Hammerheads a long term viable option, I will add to this if we experience any negative performance issues.
