Wow! A lot of interesting reading there! I’d read a couple of these before, and I think you probably had some influence on my decision to buy a Sport. Mine is yellow, too, though by comparison with yours (ahem, your wife’s), mine seems pretty bare. Not a mod anywhere to be seen! Not yet, anyway.
I very much enjoyed reading and seeing how you constructed your outriggers, Apalach. If they could not be purchased, and with sufficient motivation, I might be able to replicate them. But… they CAN be purchased—the Hobie Sidekick Amas, that is—and there is a used set now sitting at my dealer’s with, perhaps, my name on it. Anyway, the price is better than the total cost of labor, materials, and mistakes my own version would require.
The catalog says these sidekicks can be installed on any Hobie kayak. Maybe I should believe them and let my dealer explain how and where instead of excitedly jumping into other people’s discussions here.
Thanks for your reply, though.
