OUTBACK FEATURES
RE-DESIGNED BOW
Piercing bow helps cut effortlessly through the water, wind, wake, and chop while reducing hull slap. Reflective bow graphics provide an added safety feature.
LARGE BOW HATCH
Enables easy access to the bow’s stowage compartment. A security strap with a detachable clip tethers the hatch; abovedeck, Bungee® cords secure extra gear.
SPACIOUS DECK LAYOUT WITH WATERTIGHT STORAGE
Everything you need at your fingertips. Dual H-Track Deluxes with H-Rail for the ultimate in accessory mounting, customisation and organisation. EVA deck pads provide a cushioned standing area and sound dampening. The vertical rectangular hatch easily opens for more tackle storage and includes a bottle opener for cold beverage enjoyment.
GUARDIAN RETRACTABLE TRANSDUCER SHIELD
Retractable Shield protects transducer on impact and retracts away for transport. The built-in transducer mount allows side scanning for optimal fishfinder performance. Pre-installed thru-hull cable plugs allow quick, no-drill, no-glue fishfinder installation.
VANTAGE CTW SEATING
The Vantage seating system provides the comfort needed for long stretches out on the water. The seat-back, bottom, height, and lumbar support are all easily adjustable. New state-of-the-art design, with 4-way adjustablity and an added 1.5″ on the seat base for more comfort in the cockpit or on the beach. Enjoy breathability, infinite flexibility and better visibility
LIVEWELL-READY REAR CARGO AREA
Big adventures demand plenty of gear. These moulded areas and Bungee® tie-downs ensure that it’s still there when you get to camp.
KICK-UP RUDDER
The Kick-Up Rudder locks in to place when you need it and retracts on impact. A large carrying handle makes transport a breeze while providing the perfect mount for your GoPro. The stern is also Power-Pole ready with pre-drilled inserts.
POWERED BY MIRAGEDRIVE 180 + TURBO KICK UP FINS
The ungainly paddle is replaced by the sheer efficiency of the MirageDrive 180, the original pedal kayak drive. With the largest human muscle group now in play, kayaking becomes easier and more efficient than ever.

Australia’s Favourite Fishing Kayak – Better Than Ever!
The long-reining favourite for kayak fishing in Australia and the world, the Hobie Outback has received its first major redesign in over a decade. Finessing the formula that made the Outback famous, the re-design adds more stability, utility, and rear load-carrying capacity. Packed full of features dedicated anglers look for, the Outback now comes equipped with Hobie’s 180 MirageDrive Turbo with kick-up fins as standard.
The extra-wide standing deck offers an improved casting platform while the re-designed wave-piercing bow ensures you’re able to effortlessly power through chop or wake with reduced hull slapping. This combination of features and hull design makes the Outback an excellent choice for open or rough water fishing.
The Outback strikes the perfect middle ground between the Pro Angler 12 and the Compass. Packed with many of the features of the Pro Angler series but in a narrower, lighter form factor and a more affordable price bracket.
The Outback encourages long days on the water thanks to Hobie’s comfortable and supportive Vantage CTW seat system. Four moulded-in rod holders, multiple deluxe H-Track mounts, and numerous high-capacity storage compartments ensure that all your gear is accessible so you can focus on the fishing. Massively customisable with accessories and options including fishfinders and live wells, The Hobie Outback is ready to take on whatever you can throw at it.
The MirageDrive 180 Turbo continues to deliver on Hobie’s legacy for reliable performance, confidence-inspiring power and all-day efficiency. With Kick-Up Fins, explore without a care. Kelp and logs? No problem. These fins automatically kick-up on impact and adjust back when you resume pedalling.
