WTB:Hobie Outback Hatch Liner - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

You willingly paid 100 dollars for a piece of plastic that isn't water tight?!?!

I bought the plastic bucket from WalMart and cut it to fit my Outback front hatch. Water tight? No. But neither is the one that Hobie sells. I just slipped it in, marked with a sharpy and cut it to fit. I drilled a couple small holes and made a paracord loop to make it easy to identify the front of the bucket and get it in and out. Super simple and took 5 minutes. Might go buy an extra bucket or two just to have spares. I think the Walmart near me had them on sale for $10.00.

The Walmart in Norwalk had then for 3.89. There were still 6 of them.
