4:32 the two pad eyes you snapped caribeaners to are for the back seat straps... NEVER DRILL HOLES INTO THE KAYAK DECK! The silicone is useless and turns yellow. If you must add pad eyes, put them on the gunwales (gunnels) at least a few inches above the deck. Spray paint won't stick to the plastic for long and you'll get paint chips on everything. Trust me I did this a while back. "Map Pockets" Props on the @finfactory sticker! Nice set up!
William Christensen thanks brotha. There is a video by a dude with a channel called kayak hacks that made that mistake. I basically copied him. The gray yak was setup similar but the transducer was fixed in the forward part of the hatch with magnets. I just copied it really. Thanks tho man glad you enjoyed the video.
I agree except for when it comes to the 2019 Outback like somone already mentioned... man this yak is built and just might be best to date and I am not a huge Hobie fan. For me being in a landlocked state the Yak classifieds are few and far between so buying new is alot easier and quicker. With that said, I am still on the fence debating a 2017 Camo Outback with Square hatch, Hook2, Boondox landing gear, Hobie Livewell, rod holders, camara mounts, fishbag, and PFD for $2200 or getting a new 19 for $2799. Decisions, Decisions.....
Sarge's Adventures to each his own. I’m a saltwater guy there are already lots of reviews showing up where the new outback takes on water through the front hatch. One the honeymoon phase off they are all just floating hunks of plastic that all do the same thing. Some maybe a little better than others but to me it’s all about getting a good deal. Thanks for your service.
@@SlotCityFishing Yea, I seen the taking water vids, there is like 6 or 7 of them on YT so far. No saltwater here, it will do fine in Missouri lakes and rivers but, again I am still debating on this used 17 setup vs a new 19. Thanks !!
just search for hobie map cases they will pop up. thanks for watching the vids and subscribe to the channel we are always uploading new yak content. tight lines bro
i tried it and it messed up the center of buoyancy for me. i took it off. you can try it tho. thanks for watching and sub to the channel with notifications we are always putting out new kayak content and giveaways.
friend request me on FB man. Id love to do a colab video with you. im not from TX im from florida just stationed here at corpus. It would be cool if you could put me on some fish. im sure my subs would follow you too. thanks bro
I can’t find a homie this cheap. The best I could find was a old old outback the hank Parker addition. They wanted more than I thought it was worth. I don’t see any this cheap.
Great video. Dang man. $200 for any Outback is insane. My Outback was a demo that stayed on stands for a few months. The money I saved, I used to rig it, but I went a little overboard.
It sucks because at least when buying new youre spending a ton of money on something that u expect to be reliable and the worst possible thing that can happen is u take on water.. Thats why im on the fence about getting one.
I have a prowler but me and the GF took a trip down the natural springs in Florida and shes really into kayaking now so I've been looking for 2 hobies or a tandom hobie and the price is crazy..
gsppuffer do not get a tandem bro! I just looked on Craigslist in Houston. Theres a 2012 outback for 1400 bet he'd take 1100-1200 if you offered. You gotta be relentless about it. I got a 2014 PA 12 with fish finder and other accessories for 1200 bucks. I drove 2 hours and bought it within hrs of him posting it haha
Measure twice and cut once! Great video, man. Subscribed.
thanks again bro!
Man that is amazing that you guys are taking our vets out on the water. Amazing.
thanks bro i really enjoy it. good healing for me too.

Nice set up!
Agreed, except the 2019 is amazing....bought one yesterday
We’re All That Bored I’m about to put my foot in my mouth and buy one too.
SlotCityFishing LOL I wasn’t even in the market for one until I saw it. It’s the perfect blend between the PA and Outback. Had to do it.
I feel it’s a really amazing value
Hi there , umm may I ask how $$ the hobie outback 2019 ?
ASEEL ALI 2700 before tax
Which year model is your OB? Does it have a lowrance plate ready on it?
No those are really old like 2010 and older
I like the way you mounted the transducer opposite the anchor trolley so they won’t interfere with each other.

what are those map cases? where can i get them?
just search for hobie map cases they will pop up. thanks for watching the vids and subscribe to the channel we are always uploading new yak content. tight lines bro
Hey man what type of bit did you use to make the hole?
I don’t remember I just read the package and followed the instructions
great how to video
Thanks bro we have a lot of great new stuff in the channel check it out!
You guys are lucky kayaks in my area appreciate.
they are very expensive no matter where you are.
By me, used hobies go for only a few hundred less than a new one. Better to get a new one with a warranty. Your advice will be regionally specific.
Jon we are active military we bought the kayaks all in different locations on the gulf coast from Texas to Florida.
Great video man, just got the same model hobie on craigslist, what are your thoughts on installing an elevated seat on the kayak?
i tried it and it messed up the center of buoyancy for me. i took it off. you can try it tho. thanks for watching and sub to the channel with notifications we are always putting out new kayak content and giveaways.
Nice transformation 👍

great job on the upgrade diy
thanks bro if you arent already consider subbing to the channel!
i am interested in buying a used hobie where did you get your's
