The Easiest Way to Get on the Water in a Pedal-Driven Hobie Kayak
The 12-foot Hobie Mirage Passport offers a durable and affordable platform that makes it perfect for a wide range of uses from entry-level through to seasoned kayak anglers. The unique hull features a voluminous design providing excellent stability for standing while fishing. Tri hull design aids in tracking and carrying capacity with lowered drag for increased speed.
Powered by Hobie’s legendary MirageDrive with Glide Technology and kick-up fins, the Passport 12 offers hands-free propulsion that is highly efficient and always reliable. The large kick-up rudder and convenient steering handle make maneuvering in tight spaces a breeze so you can get amongst the structure without a care.
As the larger brother of the Passport 10.5, the 12ft model provides some extra features that are worth considering when deciding between the two. The extra length provides more carrying capacity for extra gear or larger occupants and allows for a greater top speed. The other key difference is the inclusion of the built-in transducer cavity and mounting plate which are not available in the 10.5.
The Passport 12 comes standard with basic features that make it ready to go for your next day on the water including EVA deck pads, 2 x H-Trac accessory mounting tracks, 2 x flush mount rod holders and an 8-inch cockpit storage hatch. Perhaps the biggest drawcard is this kayak’s ability to be customised to suit exactly what you need, while staying within your budget.
