Hobie Hull Bulge - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

h2osycho1 · 05-25-2008, 06:31 AM

I have an Outback and it has developed a bulge in the hull which affects the way it tracks in the water. Has any one had this problem? I was told to leave it in the sun and push it in. But it still doesn't retain the original contour of the hull. Any suggestions?

Thanks

I would take it back to where you purchased it from as soon as possible.

I had my revolution hull replaced for a rod holder defect.

Good advice, take it back ASAP.
