Some how I missed the original post,, but I have a pedal powered kayak,, it will out run any thing else on the water powered by man, this thing throws a wake :-) You can see me sitting in mine on the front page of my web site Saw those things at last years boat show. Good as advertised? Actually better than advertised,, Of course they (Hobie) "gave" me the boat,, I put it on international TV 43 times in 04, as They kept showing that darn Tech TV story on me. with me fishing from it. I didn't even put my bass boat in the water last year, because I love that Hobie so much, my son can get it up to 9 miles an hour for a couple hundred yards. The slowest you can peddle it is about 3 miles an hour, that's with your feet barely moving, I curse it at 5 mph,, it is the most awesome boat to fish from, extreamly stable, I have not, nor anyone that has used it, has ever turned it over. The biggest problem is keeping my wife and kids and grand kids from using it all the time,,, when I want to be fishing, one of them is out on the lake in it, when one gets out, another hops in,, heck I bought them a paddle boat that seats four, but NOOOOO,, they want to be in the OutBack, because it's so easy to cover a lot of water. Heck they use it much more than the PWC -- Rodney Long, Inventor of the Long Shot "WIGGLE" rig, SpecTastic Thread Boomerang Fishing Pro. ,Stand Out Hooks ,Stand Out Lures, Mojo's Rock Hopper & Rig Saver weights, Decoy Activator and the EZKnot http://www.ezknot.com |
