The brochure for the Evolution drive states that it comes with a mount for a twist and stow rudder as well as a Mirage drive well mount however the pro angler does not have a standard twist and stow style rudder. Can the Evolution be mounted on the PA's rudder ? |

Its the "eVolve" No, not going to have a rudder mount for the Pro Angler. We have yet to introduce the system officially. Should be by the end of October. Then we can provide more details. |

Surely the PA is the obvious choice for a rudder mount ? Wopping big boat ... it could sure use propeller and pedal power together. Is the only way to mount a eVolve drive on the PA going to be the Mirage well ? Is there a PA rudder mount under development ? One thing not mentioned in the brochure is if the eVolve comes with reverse gear or not ? The #1 reason for me to get a eVolve would be the ability to reverse the boat out of a snag when fishing tight areas. |

Yes, it has reverse. We have been considering a (Pro Angler) transom mount for the motor. It is complicated, the short answer is that it is not included in this initial kit. |

Hi Matt, on Oct 13th you mentioned the possibility that hobie was considering a stern mount for the elec motor, has anything come of that? It would be great if you could have a stern mounted elec with mirage drive at the same time for easy and fast switching from one to the other. Will that come out as a seperate kit in near future? Thanks in advance. Jim |

This is not a short term project. I tried to call our engineers for an update, but... end of the day already. I would guess it will be a few months min. |
