I just saw that hobie is making some changes to the outback, sport, and revolutions for 2015. Mainly changing the design of the seat which is what was stopping me from buying one. Anyone know when the 2015 will be available?

I saw the new outback design. That's a great step forward. Almost seems like what Ascend did with their fs12t, make it easier to stand and store gear.

The only thing I would change is maybe make a 14' model with a bigger front hatch like the PA. Its really nice to be able to throw a bag of ice and fish in the removable liner and not worry about a fish bag or ice chest. The front hatch they have now doesn't do much for me.

My biggest issues with the Outback has always been the seat and the fact that water pools around the drive, making for wet pant legs (may feel good in the warm months, but not during winter!)

This year, Hobie addressed both (supposedly) Seat looks 1000x's more comfortable and they raised the bottom so that it the wet ride should be a thing of the past.

I love my PA, but I can see myself getting an Outback for the quick trips!

Late this fall I'm assuming.

It looks like a new mirage drive too. I've been wanting one for a while. This is going to be trouble.
