Hobie's NEW Revolution 11 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Iceman · 07-15-2011, 01:20 PM

I got to try one out today, killer new kayak available in September. New soft molded side handles, this thing carries like a Mini X!.....well almost

New seat post secure, new mirage drive guide, makes it a snap to drop into place. Wider, flatter seat than the Revolution.

MSRP is said to be $1749

Ready to take your order

Sweet! Time to get a Hobie!!

So does that mean they are going to raise the price on the larger revo???
It is a great idea for Hobie to get a smaller version of the revo but at the same time I am confused.....getting something smaller for the same price as the bigger one used to be......is Hobie just taking inflation to the next level?

MSRP for the Revolution is currently $1799

LOL!!!!! Not going to stir up a pot of turds. Hobie does have a great product but can't believe you only save $50 with a much smaller version. Don't know what they are

but it must be pretty darn good.

300lb capacity? With a bait tank and some gear the operator would have to weigh about a buck-fifty!
