HOBIE STOCK UPDATE
In September 2025, Hobie was acquired by Bass Pro Shops (White River Marine Group), with production relocating from Mexico to Lebanon, Missouri, USA.
This transition is causing significant delays to Hobie kayak, parts and accessory availability across Europe and the UK. We do not currently have estimated restock dates and are unable to accept pre-orders for out-of-stock items.
For further updates, as they are announced, please see here.
Rudder Upgrade for Passport 10.5 & 12.0
The Rudder XL Kit offers a larger rudder blade for your Hobie Passport 10.5 or 12.0, to increase steering responsiveness and general handling performance. Turn faster and maintain course easier with the Rudder XL. Downhaul and Uphaul can now be operated from the seat, simply by pulling on a single control line. The kit includes a small clip point to attach the control line to the seat for easy access. This makes launching and landing much easier than the standard rudder! Installation is quick and easy.
