I can't find anyone with a Turbo fin drive in stock. I want a backup drive as my current ones are 5 years old (with lots of newer parts).
Does Wind Toys have any right now?
May the fish be mighty and the seas be meek...

These guys have them -- https://www.outdoorplay.com/hobie-miragedrive-pa17-gtt-turbo

For that price I'd consider buying a used boat and using its drive as the spare/back-up when you're out on the TI and then have a single for when you don't want to haul the TI out.

Cheers,
Brad

I have a spare 2014 model mirage with the ST fins from when I had a 2014 revo stolen from me a few years ago. Currently my backup

Many fishermen spend their lives chasing fish, only to realize that it was themselves that they were chasing.

The "Salty" in my handle refers to my attitude, not the waters I fish

This is my situation--I've got an AI and an older Adventure/Revo-16. The Adventure rarely gets used, but I think it's worth keeping around for the spare mirage drive, and those rare occasions when I can get one of my kids or wife out on a kayak...

Are you pondering what I’m pondering?
