The hands down best technique to surf land a Hobie is to steer it in with the rudder down, and drive unit locked securely in the drive well to power close to the shore.
--You use the bungie cord and hook to hold the peddles apart when you see the shallow water under the kayak. Then step off and grab the stern. Morgan at Blue Water Tackle is a Pro at this, and I have used this same technique since 06. When I deviate from the above technique its a 50% chance I will get wet using the soft Hobie Paddle. -------------------------- Regardless of how I choose to land, I always stow everything.

Those pix are awesome, hope Landwhale's hand is okay...that looks nasty! Looking at the pictures you would think it was 5 feet surf out there......but it wasn't. How many broken rods were there?

We had a special prize for best wipeout. Although there was many contenders, top honors went to Mr. Green. Blood and impalement always wins out.
