Well, I have given this yak a few tries and I am just not a Hobie guy.  Lots of nice features, great rudder, and plenty speedy.  However in the end I am a paddler, not a peddler.  Absolutely like new, only fished it with a flyrod at Mendo...still has the stickers on it.

Yak (Golden Papaya color)
Mirage drive
Seat
Paddle
Dry bag

$1500.00 obo

I'll give NCKA frst shot and then it goes on CL next week.

Wow, that is a steal Sean.  If it ends up on CL, I'd have to think you could get a bit more for it.

That is the brotherhood price...not for the CL crowd.  Its a beautiful boat, and I was really looking forward to using it, but its just not friends with my body.

My knees are good, I have been riding my MTB with joy lately...but it is not friends with my back.

I was kind of hoping for that opportunity too or at least some serious hazing on the water.
Was also interested in paddling that boat while it was around,sans mirage drive, for a speed test.
Still want to show Zee and Chuck that a kayaker is faster than a peddler in the 100 yrd splash.
good luck with the sale.

Wow... You've heard this before but... yeah... I should've taken a picture of you yesterday when I had the chance. That just looked too weird though... you peddling. I don't think Melissa even recognized you until you said hello...

If you don't know where you're headed, any road could get you there.

Hey juan, the adventure is one fine KAYAK. Yes i said kayak. someday i would like to go KAYAKING in a mirage drive hobie. Just because it has pedals dosent mean it is not a kayak. it still has a paddle. The toyota prius is still a car.

           with all due respect, jack

When I tried the Adventure, I thought it was an awesome paddling boat. Definitely fast. Just didn't see the point in paying for the pedals, 'cause I'm a paddler too. Diving is my lower body work-out!
