HOBIE MIRAGE DRIVE
This unique propulsion system was patented
by Hobie. Designer Greg Ketterman has
designed several innovative water products
including the award-winning Hobie TriFoiler.
The Hobie Mirage Drive efficiently converts a
simple fore-and-aft pedal motion into forward
speed. Adjustable pedal positions make
pedaling the Mirage comfortable

SIT-ON-TOP DESIGN
The Hobie kayak’s open-top cockpit allows
the user to enter and exit the kayak easily
from the shore, dock or water. Scupper holes
make the kayak self-bailing. The design also
eliminates the need to perform an Eskimo roll
(advanced kayak technique). The contoured
seat is fitted with an adjustable backrest for
added comfort. The multiple footwells allow
you to adjust your leg position when paddling
and not using the pedal system
HULL DESIGN
The long center “keel” area encourages the kayak
to track straight when paddling and coasting. Under
moderate paddling conditions, the wider “shoulder”
area of the hull rides high at the surface of the water
without compromising speed. If the kayak is fully loaded
with gear or is being paddled and braced in rough
conditions, the “shoulder” areas
provide secondary buoyancy
and stability
