The Mirage Drive manual is available on the web just Google for it.  Here is the Maintenance video on Youtube that might help you:

Hobo's generally dislike being repaired. They kinda stuck in their ways.   :smt005

Austin Kayak by mail or any Hobie dealer will have them. Just make sure you have a tight grip on the top of the cable fitting so you don't stress the cable at the crimp.
