Hobie Mirage Passport 12.0 Kayak Walk Through
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 лип 2024
- 12-foot Mirage Passport takes you where you want to go with ease and world-class authority with revolutionary hands-free pedal propulsion. This year, we upgraded the drive system to the legendary MirageDrive with Glide Technology and Kick-Up Fins. When you’re not relaxing in the Passport’s breathable mesh seat, a wider cockpit area with EVA floor padding provides a stable platform for standing and stretching your legs or casting a lure. There’s plenty of real estate to stash equipment on the bow or stern cargo areas and more below deck access through the center 8” Twist-n-Seal hatch. Anglers will love our stealthy new Bay Sand color and will be happy that the Passport 12 has a transducer cavity and scupper for simple install of your favorite fishfinder. All this on top of a Power-Pole® Micro bracket indent to mount your favorite shallow water anchor. Additional features include steering system with stowable rudder, two fishing rod holders, accessory tracks, and under seat and gunnel tackle storage.

Best bang for buck entry level fishing kayak hands down. That GT Kick Up drive is the AK47 of all kayak pedal drives.
Bro, insane job on the video and speaking.
The innovation with these kayaks are insane. You can tell they thought out every detail. Nice job, Hobie!!
The next kayak is hobby!
Thank you for always good videos‼️
Got mine 2 months ago and I love it !
Perfect!!!!
CONQUISTEI MEU PASSPORT 12.0 ESTOU LOUCO PRA COLOCAR NA ÁGUA E PEGAR MUITOS PEIXES ❤
How much?$$$
how much would the 180 upgrade be additional??
How does this do in open sea with waves?
I just bought one. I'm looking forward to taking it out for the first time.
it would be interesting to install the MD 180 as standard
Wish that was a option to choose from so you don’t have to buy it separately bet they would sell more doing it as an upgrade
Which one is faster? Passport or outback?
Do you think i can fit an extra seat in the Passport 12 for my teenager son weighing 65kg ? Both of us weighs a combine 140kg.Ive got a side kick arm installed
Keep in mind the overall weight capacity of the Passport 12 is 400 LBS / 181.44 KG, so as long as you're within the spec, and weight is evenly distributed over the kayak, you shouldn't have issues.
I'M TRYING TO BUY A KAYAK HERE IN BRAZIL IT'S DIFFICULT WHERE THERE IS A DEALER IN BRAZIL...
I’m 260 lbs I wonder if this will be ok for me
Can seat be changed to taller seat that sits a lottle higher off kayak?
Unfortunately, not at this time.
Is it possible to stick a 30lb thrust trolling motor on one of these?
Not at this time, no.
Which Hobbie kayaks can be used with a sail?
Good Question! All of our current roto-molded and thermoformed kayaks work with our sail kit. All Passports have been able to use the sail! Most older Hobie kayak models can also use a sail, so exceptions are model year #1 for the Compass did not feature a sail mast base (this hull should be five or six years old now). Our current inflatable line does not work with our sail kit. Our older inflatable kayaks did have a special sail kit option that featured more standard rigging lines but those models are discontinued.
Hey I have an pa14 I'm 6 foot 5 would I fit in the passport 12
It's a lot less stable. Have you looked at the Outback?
@@BeaufortSCFishing I have it's a bit out off my range sorta looking for something around 2k I have the pa and want something small and light
Nice design except the rudder cannot be retracted from the cockpit. Not good if you are in shallow water a lot and get into situations where you need to paddle backwards. Should have flip-up rudder similar to that used on the Lynx.
I think it automatically retracts with a certain amount of pressure
@@BeaufortSCFishing Yes, it retracts when going forward, but if you have to paddle backward it does not, to my knowledge, retract - so you have to take extra care when maneuvering in shallow water. Not a problem for most people, perhaps, but where I am shallow water and stumps are present, depending on your target species.
It’s not hard. If sailing children in Optimists can learn to handle shallow water rudders then so can we.
@@scottlovig1369 I believe those children on the little sail boats are right next to the rudder, not having to reach some distance, possibly over fishing equipment, to reach it. Nor are they as likely as someone fishing, or exploring backwaters, to go into areas with obstructions. My whole point is that Hobie (or their subcontractor?) was trying to make a relatively inexpensive design, but I think they went a bit too far in trying to make the rudder look like a Revo rudder. Admittedly I have not seen complaints about that the design, but it would cause me problems where I fish.
@@BeaufortSCFishing The thing is after it retract itself in the shallow water when it feels pressure. Wat u gonna do after when u want to put it down and leave? Get down to the water and go all the way to the back to do it lol.
il faut mettre les vidèos en français si vous voulez en faire profiter les adeptes
Why does there seem to be a seam going around the kayak it’s not mold it all in one not sure that’s a good design
Lynx and Passport hulls are thermoformed, which means two sheets of material get joined together in the molding process. The result is an extremely robust parting line, which allows us to also get the attractive two-tone hull colors.
@@HobieOfficial lynx sure is not robust...
So which of the Hobie pedal kayaks is the cheapest?
Our most budget friendly pedal kayaks are the Mirage Passport Series. We offer a 10.5 foot model and a 12.0 foot model. The main thing that sets the Passport 12.0 apart from the 10.5, besides the length, is the built-in transducer mount and some extra storage features. Check out Hobie.com for more info!
Just got one for $850
