Its finally here!!!
Picked up my new Hobie Outback today and couldn't be happier, i just can't wait for the maiden voyage!!
This would be nothing new to all here but i need to brag!!!
Arrived home safely!!
Taking the straps off
Getting my DIY rack and roll set up
Ready to dismount
Almost off!! (don't worry i used my knees.....just had to pause for a photo)
Wheels on, kayak off
Ready for accessories
All ready to be pimped
Many thanks to Neil and Lyn May at Westvic Kayaks and Kampers who made everything easy

Re: Got me a yak!!!!!
To pimp now or pimp later... that is the question!
Congrats mate. The only thing I can see wrong with it is.... it's not yellow, but I'll forgive ya. They all end up black after a few squid sessions anyway

Re: Got me a yak!!!!!
With the adventure being "Stretch" the PA being Fat's the Outback would have to be "Chubb'y", clever little play naming your car in matching colors . Congrats on the new rig, hope the trips are many and the mojo strong.
When we say it's BIG RED SEASON, we don't mean a big red blood stain on the bay,
GET YOUR LIGHTS ON + YOUR PFD'S.
Happy Sailing Fishing and keep blowing bubbles.
Cheers
Eddie
