Sailing your outback brings a whole new experience to kayaking.

The Hobie Kayak Sail on the Hobie Mirage Outback, Sport and Tandem makes an amazing little sailboat. It is the unique combination of the MirageDrive and the hand controlled rudder that make it work so well. You steer with your fingertips, control the mainsheet with the other hand and pedal with your feet. The fins of the MirageDrive provide lateral resistance, just like the centerboard of a sailboat. You'll be amazed how just a little effort with the pedals will make your Hobie Kayak perform like a considerably bigger sailboat. With your Kayak Sail, you'll go farthe faster!
