I had a guy at a repair shop service my drives. I have an outback and a compass. Both have 180 kickup drives. I used my drive in my outback 3, maybe 4 times since he serviced it. Shredded the teeth of my rear sprocket. Can't help but think his servicing contributed to that failure. Maybe chain was too loose? Same experience you described. Felt a little off first time out. I was thinking maybe it was in my head. Took it out twice thise weekend. Felt like it was slipping. By midway through my trip yesterday the back sprocket was shredded. Limped it along for the remainder of the day but I need to replace the spine. I don't think I have the fortitude (or skill, lol) to do what you did. I has a similar thought on how to fix it, but didn't realize all those little parts were involved. Seems like a lot of work. New spine is going to cost me about $500 after parts, labor, and shipping. Getting it done at a dofferent shop than the one that did the original work. Don't need any more favors from him.

Wya? Need a update on the Hobie lol

Nice video, thanks for taking the time to make it. Why did you change out the seat to the AG seat? Is AG seat higher? Is it more comfortable than the hobie seat? Look forward to hearing from you

Steering while not moving in relationship with water is not possible with rudder. (But you know that.) Not having a skag or keel without a rudder and moving in relation to water that surfboard will want to turn sideways to line of travel. I would suggest making a replacement rudder out of thin plywood the same size paint it and cut 1” off depth till it give you enough rudder control and can be left down as skag. As far as keeping boat deck clean good quality floor wax or car wax should make it easier to clean but slipperyer when wet your choice. Thanks for video review very well done.👍🏻👍🏻

Love the effort and creativity!

Do you know the seat width and heights (both positions) for the Aquaglide seat? Their website shows it out of stock and has no spec sheet available> Thanks!

This is the most complete review I found on YT, thank you! I plan to get the Vibe Inflatable 100 pedal kayak with impulse drive with reverse. Hobie is nice but the fins system is a deal breaker for me

this was sweet..Awesome stuff.

same here. old hobie had metal teeth, when you rip the soft plastic teeth off they get you for $400 for a new spine. Hobie really screwing their customers.... Ive owned four... never again

Hi there! I am not sure I should attempt the same repairs as you. I go a barrel will 3 broken teeth, but it's the external ones (1 on a side 2 on the other). Do you think it worse a repair ? If not, should I tight the chain as you did ? Is it worsing unassemble everything to repair 3 teeths or I could just remove the chain ? And finally, what is the paste you have used ? Thanks :) Your repair looks dope.

Hey Mr. Fish Hunter…youre pretty good at that Ned rig fishin! 😂😂

Great video, thank you! Would you buy it again if you had to? or would you get something else?

The drive you show at the end of the video isn't the same as the one at the beginning. The first drive with the broken teeth didn't have kick up fins, had a bent mast, tons of scratches on the fins and the whole drive was worn. The drive you demo at the end is a brand new 180 drive with kick up fins. I'm guessing your fix didn't even work but you still wanted to make a video out of it since you'd put in so much time.

5:08 Hope you didn't get stabbed with the scissors! Crazy idea to get a haircut while driving :-O

I’m really interested in the Hobie’s. I currently own an Outback. I live on an island and my one hesitations is oyster beds. As a river fisherman, you also have challenges of puncture. Obviously your yak survived a crash by a vegan ned fisherman. Nothing could be much worse. Just how careful would a non ned, meat eating fisherman need to be to guard against holes in the bottom?

Dose the teeth still intact?

You’re sad

Did the job weld come off eventually? That stuff can’t stay on mine

Super helpful! Really enjoyed the low-key humor as well!

What frog patten lure was that in the beginning..

Excellent…thanks for taking us along! High Noon

Man what an epic outing & a gorgeous spot! I'd think twice before wading a Creek like that w/all those Snakes!! I rarely watch a YT Vid all the way through anymore, this was an exception. Excellent Video man, well done! Glad you're back in the Fishing game.

Nice board/kayak. I looked at these for a while. Hobie's comments that the glue seams holding it together are good for about 5 years, even just stored and not used, gave me pause. But, the Bote SUP company says it is easy to re-glue any seams that separate and they have a video on doing it. I got the Lynx instead which is pretty much just a hard board version of the iTrek9. I'm starting to think the iTrek9 would be the way to go after carrying the Lynx 10 times in the last three days. Can't beat the inflatable's 20-30lbs weight.

Going next week to fish for peacock and other species.. What canals did u fish / where? Appreciate the help.

Is this repair still holding up well?

That repair is probably stronger than the original piece

Mate I had never heard of a Ned rig before, I fish saltwater estuaries I think Im going to give that a go, I recon it could would quite well :)

Where do you keep your extra lures?

A year later.. if you could go back, would you buy this or the iTrek 11?

i will fish ned rigs, only when they are eating it off the bottom as soon as it lands, can confirm I just piss in the boat i dont bother standing. Really cool seeing more SUP in the fishing scene. I heard of someone fishing the upper/west branch Delaware river with one. Really useful for the fly anglers I think. I wait to see the day someone mounts a trolling motor on one of these lol.

this part would be soo nice in stainless steel

This solution is awesome, but how long did that take you in real time?

How did you get a 360 drive?

Hobie has a plastic hook and bungee. The hook fits the vertical square post of the peddle. When attached ir post it will keep peddles fully extended and the fins flush to the bottom of the boat. The bungee end attached to a D-ring.

I'm going to attempt the same thing to fix one tooth. What size screw did you get?

Do you see the Itrek Duo being air travel capable? I am thinking the hull can go in one checked container and the rest of the equipment in another.

That sunset…

Looks like fun 😄

Nice review. As for the “need to be moving to turn” complaint? Welcome to boats. That’s just physics. Until they install bow thrusters on small watercraft your only fix is small motor/autopilot system.

When you stand up paddleboard, do you take out the pedals and put the black piece in place?

Good shootin partner

Cool. Yeah I have seen those there. Millions everywhere. Not many here in J ville.

Can you make any money off them ? And can you eat them ? Lol

🤘🏻🍻❤️🇨🇦

cool video brother

Price?

Loved this one! I need to get me one of these

I caught my PB on a Ned rig, to funny. I will be fishing micro Ned’s tomorrow in the north east in the rain 👍

You’re a funny guy! Lol

Do you find the itrek more susceptible to wind when not in a river setting? Curious to know how you like it when fishing canals? I am still thinking about getting one for my local rivers/creeks.
