First Kayak, need an education

[Mahigeer]

1) Welcome to the board.

I have two kayaks (14 ft. Malibu X Factor/15ft Hobie Outback) that will be for sale early next year when I get back from my ice fishing trip to………. wait for it .......Utah!!! Look up my previously posted long reports here.

I will also have a special rack (Thule Hullavator) for sale too. Along with many related items. Just add water.

Currently I am too busy getting ready for my trip. PM me after January 20th for more details if you can wait.

2) Are you aware of funny A in your post?

3) Do you happen to know a ski instructor named Magic who lives in Park City for about 40 years? I will be visiting him on Jan. 4th.

Happy holidays.

I don’t know Magic, enjoy your visit. I’m up on Deer Valley slopes, don’t go into Park City all that much(especially now)

No idea on that A, seems to be with don’t and doesn’t. Will see if happens again, I didn’t do it.

Hullvater i have interest in, depends on boat I get. The weight limit says 70 lbs, most the boats I have interest in surpass that. Have you tested the limits on that. I assume your boats for sale push 125 lbs or more, did you use the Hullvater for those? The Yakima version has 80 lbs max, might go that way due to max weight being higher.

Feel free to PM me too after the 20th, it will be clearer then what Kayak I’m getting.

Hullivator supports my 2017 OB.

You'll have to adjust the cradles on each rack/ arm so the width of the kayak fits.

Best platform I've used to load my kayak when I road trip!

Good luck.

I loaded the 15 ft. Hobie Outback with the Hallavator.

It made the width of the kayak, but had to be set to Past maximum!

Without the drive I don't think the Outback weighs over 80 lbs.

I looked, but could not find answer from Google. You may want to look.

I will discuss it further later as to the pro and cons.

I'm not sure if a 15ft hobie outback exists.

It could be one of Frank's inventions.

Inventing something usually means you were the first person to put something into practice. Unfortunately for many of Frank's inventions, there will never be a second.
