Great time to save some money on a Hobie as 2012 models released on October 1st. Dealer cost and MSRP Prices went up about $50 on most popular Mirage models. Just picked up a 2012 Revolution 13 and the biggest change is the side handles and seat pegs. The reinforced scuppers in the tank well are not in production and considered a running change, not a 2012 modification. Side handles are not just molded in, they are now padded just like the Revolution 11 , like these posted below.
