Well, we are a bit behind on getting our settlement operational on Mars
but can you believe the changes going on in kayaks these days!
First
released Sept 2006, this Mirage Adventure Island can be pedaled,
paddled or sailed (including fishing) but unlike the
original Adventure, this one has amas on both sides and a large
sail with roller furling mast to make it easy to handle in varied wind
conditions.
See details below:
- A boomless, roller-furling sail rig similar to the rig on the Hobie Bravo with plenty of sail area for excellent performance, completely manageable from the cockpit with the pull of a line.
- Two retractable amas that fold up against the side of the boat for easy docking, maneuverability, and transport.
- The cockpit is an unbelievably stable platform
offering full versatility as a pedaling kayak when conditions are not
convenient for sailing.
- The Hobie Mirage Drive (now coming standard with
Turbo Drive) allows the boat to be pedaled while under sail, or simply
pedaled with the sail furled. Remember it's still a fantastic kayak if
you notice the wind is not happening.... you may choose to leave
the sail amas and akas in your vehicle, kayaking while waiting for the
wind to kick in.... That's versatility not found in any other kayak or
sailboat.
- The Adventure Island is loaded with additional
standard features such as a fiberglass paddle, deluxe backrest, daggerboard, gear
bucket, oversized sailing rudder, Mast and Sail Cover,
and an Ama/Daggerboard Bag.
- The Adventure Island is now offered in three color
choices: Papaya Yellow, Hibiscus Red and Ivory Dune. All color
options include beautifully color-coordinated sails.
- New for 2012 is locking seat plugs to keep the
seat firmly in place while sailing. The AI also now comes with Mirage
alignment pins combined with slots molded into the drivewell to make
the drive installation a breeze compared to the earlier Mirage models.
- And check out our Hobie Accessories page to fully customize your Adventure Island.
