Product Currently Unavailable
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.
