HOBIE FLOAT CAT
OWNER’S MANUAL
Congratulations on your purchase of a Hobie Outback Float Cat! The Hobie reputation for exceptional
design, high quality materials, and professional service will ensure you years of pleasure.
The Float Cat was designed to enhance your fishing experience. The efficient multihull design moves
quickly over the water - a light kick will accelerate you towards your prey. The elevated seat puts you inches
above the water, keeping you warm and dry while improving visibility, accuracy, and ease in casting. The
compact shape and low weight allows you to take your Float Cat anywhere. The drink well, rod holder, and
accessories such as stripping apron with storage bags, backpack, travel bag, cooler, and rowing systems,
to name a few, makes your Float Cat a vacation destination in itself.
Hobie’s attention to detail is found throughout. The pontoons are constructed of a unique high impact,
low maintenance, polyethylene used for kayaks and industrial sanitation bins. All aluminum alloy parts
are anodized or coated to prevent corrosion. Hardware and webbing are the highest grade available. All
components are manufactured to Hobie’s specifications and made in the U.S.A. Best yet, your Float Cat
is backed by our 3 year warranty.*
From assembly to short of bringing in that record rainbow, the friendly folks at Hobie Outback are available
to answer your questions Monday through Friday at: (760) 758-9100 And they’re always curious to know
how your Float Cat performed.
Be prepared to share your Hobie Outback Float Cat with your family and friends. Or better yet, send
them to your local Outback Dealer.
Good luck fishing...and have a Hobie Day!
