We have been selling Hobie kayaks longer than anybody in Michigan. Hobie was named 2005 Boat Manufacturer of the Year by Canoe & Kayak Magazine. Hobie kayaks are all very efficient sit-on-top boats of outstanding quality. The pedal powered Mirage line is the biggest head-turner everywhere it goes. After much scepticism, is has been very well recieved. Everyone who trys it wants it! Now the New Mirage Adventure Island trimaran sailing kayak is the coolest thing on the water.
