Hobie Mirage Drive Maintenance
 
Just got my first Hobie....no paperwork, no clue.....

Can those in the know give me any advice on how the drive should be maintained? Do you just rinse with fresh water and let dry? WD-40?

Any help would be appreciated....

fresh water rinse....fluid film on chain and any exposed wires about once a month...

Don't forget to check the set screws that secure the fin masts. I 've heard of more than one incident of lost fins due to this set screw backing out. :eek::farmer:
