Woodie044 · 02-26-2013, 09:48 PM

I have a Revolution that I'd like to sell for $1500. I've taken it out once and figured out its not for me. Going back to a stealth 9.
It comes with turbo fins, upgraded padded seats, padded foot pedals,
Click in mirage drive, deep gear bucket. I also have sailing rudder that's not installed yet, two pole extended not installed yet, and pedal weights not installed yet. thank you

Woodie, Can you give us a review of the Revo 11 from your prospective?
I'm considering the Revo 13 that's why I ask. Do you just prefer to paddle?

tks

Revo is real nice and quick. I just prefer to paddle. the peddles take up space in front of me, which is where I like to place a lot of my stuff for easy access. In general, Hobie makes quality kayaks. The seat is mighty comfy and the paddle is light. kayak is easy to load on top my car rack. I don't have anything bad to say about revo 11. I'm just prefer wider kayaks for stability. Going back to stealth 9, for stability and it's light so i can still load on car easily. But I'm giving up speed and distance.

How old is this revo? What year?

Woodie044 · 03-01-2013, 08:29 PM

I got it from Andy at OEX sunset this past december. Wasnt able to take it out til february cause of the cold weather. I think its a 2012...I'm not sure.

HatterasCast · 03-01-2013, 08:31 PM

Was it a demo/rental? Or new yak?

Woodie044 · 03-01-2013, 10:06 PM

I think it was a demo

Not a demo, fully warrantied kayak.

Woodie044 · 03-01-2013, 10:25 PM

Thanks for the correction Andy. I'm a pretty impulsive person and don't pay attention to details sometimes. Hence I probably should have tested a hobie kayak on the water first before running out and puchasing one

I love my revo 11, I think they are more suited for smaller guys. And yes its light and easy to load on the roof. I like the stability and ease of manuverability that it has.
