2016 Hobie Revo 13 First impressions - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Finally got on the water for a few hours in the new ride.

Having previously owned an Outback and a PA 12 I was really looking forward to this new ride.

It did not disappoint. What a great kayak with a nice blend of speed and stability.

It is by far the quickest Hobie I have owned easily cruising at 4.5 mph on my gps at just a gentle pedaling pace.

The new Vantage seat and upgraded Mirage drive were really nice

At 70 pounds hull weight an easy load on top of my jeep.

Now if I only had caught some fish today...
