Hobie Hulls?? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

OK, bit the bullet, goin dark... picked up a like new/used Hobie Revo 13 in the oyster sand color..

Rigging it now.

Selling Tarpon 160 (or attempting to)

Anyways, after a maiden voyage in the bay just to test, etc.. I noticed a few things.

The biggest is the Hull seems a little flimsy, weak, cheap!?!?

I swear if I was real pissed, I could put my fist through parts of the hobie...

I could take a baseball bat too my Tarpon hull and only get tired!!

Same with the wifes old Malibu Stealth 12 (that thing was a beast!)

Anybody else noticed this?!?
