Does anyone have a right side Pedal/crank assembly for Mirage Drive they are willing to part with for sale? The part # is 81222 and everywhere is sold out currently

All the best-

Some have made custom crank arms out of aluminum billet stock -- I think Nowhereman did this. It might be quicker than waiting on the parts to come into stock. Good luck!

Cheers,
Brad

Yes! I've made a lot of them of out of solid 3/4" square 6061 aluminum--a strange hobby of mine....

They've proven indestructible for me. The only issue is that you'd probably need to use bicycle pedals, as there is not an easy way to directly attach the Hobie pedals.

Thanks for the suggestions gentlemen. Actually the failure is on the end of the pedal spindle on the threads. Since the spindle is pressed on I figured I needed to replace the whole assembly. While it sounds fun to make custom cranks with bike pedals, I have a job, school-age kids, and a house remodel to attend to and barely have time to get out on the water as much as I would like.
I’m thinking of some way to to temporarily keep the pedal on while I wait for a replacement to make itself available. Of course if I am looking at more than a few weeks I will need to consider an alternative to replacing the whole drive and may go the DIY cranks route

They are out of stock at west coast sailing, eBay, and every dealer I have called coast-to-coast. The “ships in 3-6 weeks” on west coast sailings site is just a way of saying “we can get one when Hobie has them again.” CCK told me per the Hobie shortage list updated 2/27 they were “researching “

Since I make my own solid crank arms, and I have multiple mirage drives, I've got a few spare stock crank arms. Here's a right-side one. You could borrow it--no hurry to get it back, as I'll never use it again.

Indeed a very kind offer. If I take you up on it will also be an excuse to visit my old stomping grounds in Santa Cruz. I’ll pm if I take you up on it and if you could let me know what your favorite beverage is.
Cheers
