I have chased a leak on my Mirage Pro for the last year. It was purchased in the fall of 21 and since last April it has been leaking water which has now grown to a significant leak. For months I thought it was due to rain and a hull gasket leak until I found this forum and the discussion of multiple parties with scupper leaks. Sure enough the scupper drain by the right seat post is cracked. I love this kayak (own two of them) but I am floored that this is a structural crack and a number of parties have had this quality issue. The other killer is apparently now I am 5 months out of warranty. Does anyone know if this can be fixed it is a long crack from the hull bottom running 3”s up the scupper tube. Totally bummed!

Have your dealer open a claim. Hobie has on some occasions performed hull warranty repairs/swaps beyond warranty expiration, especially for more commonly reported issues.
