FS: Hobie outback - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

AirborneYak · 04-08-2014, 05:31 PM

This is not my CL listing. I just saw it posted up a few hours ago from the OC area. There have been people looking for an Outback on here, so I'm just helping out. It's listing at $1250, but no idea what the year is.

Good luck people!! It looks like a great deal!!

Lol what if that girl on the picture is the seller?! Or the seller is more likely a burly dude selling the Outback out of his van that has "FREE CANDY" on the side. Lol

Seen this ad up for a few weeks now just with different photos. Not sure what the deal is.

JeffB · 04-08-2014, 06:26 PM

Plus if that is the yak, not a super great deal for an old model yak.

momo fish · 04-08-2014, 07:34 PM

Same here. Called about it and it's 5 year old which is ok but others have seen the kayak and did not purchase so made me wonder why someone would go see it and not buy it. Somehow he doesn't post his own pictures of the outback and use web images which is odd to me.

momo fish · 04-08-2014, 07:37 PM

Yup I agree but it's 5 years old so not to bad. He was pretty firm though on his price.

Here is a great deal on a new kayak called mirage evolution. Lol I would be all over this deal since it's brand new if not location.

What's that? A combination of a hobie evolve and hobie revolution?

Dang. Sorry guys. I wasn't aware that this might be a scam job.

On a side note though, ill probably looking to sell my 2012 Outback sometime this year. It won't be a scam. I promise! Lol

What are you upgrading to?

I'm not sure. I really like the PA12, but dang if itsnt heavier than a fat chick after a Vegas buffet. I just don't see me having much free time to hit the water anytime soon. It'll be priced to sell that's for sure.

Hey I think I saw your ad on cl I'm looking for a Hobie mirage sport but I wouldn't mind checking this one out. I'm 5'6" 160 lbs so I think the sport would be better for me but id like to look at yours

Edit: sorry I just read your post about that not being your listing. I think I read here before your willing to sell your outback yo BWE members for $1000 though. It might have been someone else's thread

Youre thinking of a different FS post.

Iceman · 04-09-2014, 02:53 PM

I would run in the other direction of any seller using "stock " photos.........and that price is a joke

cell128 · 04-09-2014, 03:35 PM

What do you guys think about this? Its a 2006 Hobie mirage sport for $1300 http://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/spo/4403206286.html

StinkyMatt · 04-09-2014, 04:05 PM

Plenty of bigger , better kayaks to buy at that price........

And they will not be almost a decade old!!!!!!!!

cell128 · 04-09-2014, 04:16 PM

Thanks. I really like the 10' size though. He is asking too much though he's had it for 8 years and is only shaving $500 off of what I can get a 2014 model for

Hobie sellers are on crack sometimes. A guy out here tried to sell me a brand new 2006 model for 1600. I asked him why would I buy a 7 year old kayak for a few hundred less and he tried to sell me a story about how they were made better before and now everyone tries to cut cost in materials. Blah blah blah. Won't even go into how I really felt about him
