Hobie Tandem Island Review

- I've owned my Hobie Tandem island "Shellharbour Dolphin" now for nearly two years. In that time, I've appreciated review videos and tips and tricks on this platform, so I thought I would share my short review of this great boat, or .... kayak (not sure what to call it). Hope you like it and add some thoughts or suggestions in the comments and follow my other brief sailing stories on this channel in the "Beachfinder" playlist.

Great channel, mate! Appreciate your straightforward delivery andtop notch production quality. I'm thinking of getting one of these and it is great to see the real world details and tricks in actual use, such as needing a paddle in shallow water and putting foam in the mast hole to keep the balls in place when trailering. Enjoying your adventure videos where I saw that paddle detail. Subscribed!
Please keep up the good work and keep ahead of the sharks!
A very versatile craft. You can do so many things with it. I own sailboats that'll do over 40 knots but if I could only have one boat, it'd be the Hobie Island.
appreciate your honesty about your struggles with the craft. If I had somewhere to store one I'd be lining up to go pick one up this week
Thanks for that Craig. I fetch mine from Sunstate Watersports tomorrow - can't wait!
oh, awesome! You'll love it!
Very helpful review, thanks mate. Buying one of these TI’s soon!
Hope you enjoy it!
Hey mate...
Many things I had changed on my TI which I think are needed.
I will make a video and let you know.
Thanks for sharing 👍
Greetings from Spain 🇪🇸
Thanks. Look forward to it.
It's a kayak! I use mine without outriggers often and is very stable. (2014 model with low seat). Agree no need to modify these as they work great for sailing as is. cheers
I can see your dolly have crack,it happend because TI is heavy and that pipe on bottom is flexible more than plastic on top.So plastic are cracking.To stop crack cary on, put little hole on each end of crack.On my it help to stoped it.Another thing I can see is your cover.If you use it when traveling and if you have diesel car , fumes from car go under cover and stick to kayak and I can tell you it was hard to clean it off.I did not hear that petrol car have same problem. One more advice,when you tide up TI on trailer be wery careful , when you over tighten it , that capers holes on front of each place can crack and it is very hard to repair that.Good luck with thatJaroslav
Great review. I always angle my vantage seat forward and put the front part in first. And while pushing down on it I click in the back. Works most of the time and never pops out, but I do understand your frustration.
Yes. I try every way. It went in first time yesterday, but most times it is frustrating.
and thanks for the positive comment 👍
excellent😮👏👏😊
Nice video mate great trailer too! Agree about the Vantage seat it always takes me 10 attempts.
Yes. Most aspects of the boat are fantastic, but the seat attachment is not a great design.
Thanks for the positive comment as well - I enjoy your videos also. I have to get up your way sometime!
@@craignealon3978 cheers mate if you do let me know.
Hi Craig! Great video! Can you share the main dimensions of the trailer please? I am looking to get a similar solution as yours.
Thank you for the review. I'm undecided between something like this or an inflatable sailing catamaran, like a Minicat. Can you sit on the trampolines that connect to the amas or are they just for baggage?
Yes. The tramps are OK to sit on. Maybe not so comfortable or easy to control the kayak though.
