Hobie inflatable repair

Hi All,

Recently bought a second hand inflatable kayak. Hobie Mirage i14. Unfortunately the middle chamber has a leak (not noticed when purchasing) and I suspect it could be a tricky repair since I cannot seem to locate the leak (I think it may be under the bottom PVC sheet- not sure how a hole would develop there...). I was wondering if anyone knows of anyone / company in the area that would be able to do a repair job on it? Or if anyone has any advice on how to deal with this.

Many thanks in advance!

You could try California Canoe Kayaks in Oakland or Sacramento.

I had one I could not get repaired due to the drop stitch coming apart because of heat out in the sun. CCK ended up offering me a new hull for around $1000 including shipping. They may be able to offer you similar option depending on Hobie.

Good luck!
