Aquabones and I bought two Hobies on Friday. we got a Revolution 9' for her and an 11" for me. great people at FAY's
we put in some quality time pedaling them over the weekend. They are lots of fun. the drive system is well thought out and a breeze to use. the seats are comfortable. the kayak is VERY stable.
we let our daughter and son in law take them out, too(adjustments for height are really quick, just a couple of seconds). they had a great time on the kayaks, too.
i tried the paddle to see what it was like, but i found pedaling was more fun and easier on my shoulders.
took it fishing around the rocks in our cove. excellent fishing platform. i hooked a good size smallie and got towed around like Ahab and Moby Dick. great fun!
