Hey guys, question for Hobie PA-12 owners.What can you tell me about the boat, what do you like and dislike about it,and do you feel you got your money's worth?

Just got mine last night ..launching tomorrow morning ..ill let you know my review tomorrow

I got mine a few weeks ago, came from a NuCanoe, took it out for the first time today, lake Decker in Austin. It was AWESOME!!!!

The main reason for my purchase was to have a kayak I could take out more often, less concern about wind. Got on the water and the wind kicked up, but the mirage drive was all its advertised as...just amazing. Easy to go straight into the wind and maintain position when fishing.

I love mine. I am 57 and the weight is the only drawback when I have to roll it up a steep ramp because of low lake levels. I feel very safe and have never felt like I would turtle. I would suggest getting the larger rudder to enhance turning. They are so comfortable I have iterally taken a cat nap in mine. I feel they are well worth the price.

Thanks for the feedback guys I have the opportunity to buy one from a guy brand new for 2k. $1000 off of retail so I'm thinking about getting it.

Deng brand new for 2k? I would jump on it asap before it sell that's one heck of a deal

yes sir never used.

Make sure it isn't stolen with that price tag, I hope for your sake it isn't though!!

Nope it isn't, he's a local dealer and he only has the one left, he's tryin to get rid of it to make room for the 2015 model. He just unwrapped it from the plastic a few days ago...I'm picking it up tomorrow.

how'd it go and where'd you buy yours from?

Lews4Life Go here open invite. catfishin little ridge sat and twok sunday page 5. Tony slayed them and caught his PB fresh water fish (blue cat) on his first time out on his new PA.

That sounds like a "Fire Sale" - congratulations!

lews4life I had such a great time with my new PA12 I am quite sure that you got a much better deal on yours. I am happy that you got yours congrats! the room and comfort of the PA12 is worth every penny! let me know how you like yours
