I'm all for the rights of workers but when a few create such a huge detriment to an economy and jobs surely its time to deploy the national guard and let them take over positions! Until the issue is rectified. I want my bloody kayak :D

Hi guys I have to ask the question did they make it or not?


We have kayaks coming to Australia so yes some of the containers have made it on ships. Once products arrives in Australia we notify dealers so stay in touch with your dealer.
thank you.

Hi

Can anyone advise how high the 2015 TI is when folded for transport. I am thinking Aka's and Ama's fitted but folded in. Seats mounted and folded to their lowest position?

I'm modifying a double deck trailer and want to know if I need more clearance under the top rack.

Thanks

Brad

Should be the same as the 2014 Ti. The only mod done to the hull is the Lowrance System and that won't make it any higher I would think.

I was told that the height of the cleat on the crossbar as 16" or 400mm.

I wasn't sure if the Aka's or the new seats (when folded) might be higher than this?

On my girlfriends fishing kayak the seat is the highest point.

Cheers

Brad

Brad the seats come out. Store them in the vehicle.

Not sure about the height of the TI folded, I'm sure one of the TI owners will tell you. I don't have one…………………infact, I don't have a yak at all!! (don't get me started…………… just joking guys)

All good mate.

Thanks XD

I don't have one yet either :roll: My girlfriend picked up her new fishing Kayak last weekend, so that hardly seems fair......

The goal was to leave the TI as fully assembled as possible. In order to shorten assembly time at the ramp.

Cheers

Brad

Yeah Brad, that's the way to do it quickly in and out, no stuffing around.

How cool is that. I wish my girlfriend had her own fishing yak. (I wonder if the wife would mind)

Brad, if you work on 17 inches it should be fine. I just measured the display 2014 TI on the trailer in the show room.

XD.

Just spoke to my dealer in South Australia... No chance of a TI in Adelaide until late March at best.
Apparently the containers that have made it on the ships are the older ones that were packed from Hobie in October last year...
