No birds and no yellow that I saw today, very slow.

Almost sank.

Hobie Outbacks rear hatch is really a stupid idea!!!

Got to go buy some silicone.

Happened to myself also, out in front of O'side. Luckily I had my hand pump and another yakker to shadow me all the way in to the launch. Glad your ok Chris! Btw, I immediately got a new o-ring and sold my Outback. Bought a Rev 13 from Andy - been happy ever since. Thanks for the report Stevoo, sorry you lost that mystery fish. 😣

Has anyone had this issue with the pro angler?

"Glad your ok Chris! Btw, I immediately got a new o-ring and sold my Outback."

Thanks Geno. I thought the issue was the "O" ring as well, until I filled up my yak at home with water. The "O" ring was not leaking. It was flowing like a hose between the whole latch unit and the kayak itself. I will need to unscrew the unit and silicon it and reattach. BTW I love the outback. I sail with it because it is so stable



"Has anyone had this issue with the pro angler? "

I have not heard of any issues ... The Outback has it in a different (BAD) place.

I know someone that had this issue. Not as extreme as your case, but None the less a newer style outback that had a rear end that was dipping . My bad for going off topic .
