I just purchased this Rig! I got the pro 14, and the EVolve Motor, So I can be out there with my Husband. Can not wait to get out and play in it! and yes we all already have a Center console Flats Boat. But we want there for our Retirement.
Does Hobie have any Evolve upgrades planned? The 2019 Outback features rudder and transducer kick-up features, to protect from impact underwater. What about a built in shock absorber or kick-up to protect the Evolve in the Mirage Drive position???
Everyone is crying about the price! Top of the line kayaks are all around the same price! Flat bottom boats are cheaper, and for a reason! Plus you can't take a cheap boat everywhere a kayak can go!
Half hour , may be an hour . Not a good option Way too expensive and short lasting. I’ve recently gone with the water snake t 24 , paired with a 50 ah lithium Vmax pro battery. The v max capacity is much larger than the evolve. The total price is a fraction of what I would have paid for the hobie evolve. My work schedule has been busy recently, but I should have some videos posted to my channel soon of the setup in use during my kayak catfishing outings.
@wisyakman Just be happy you dont live in Denmark as i do.. A Pro Angler + that eVovle motor kit is $8600. Due to the Danish tax system... The ProAngler alone is $4800..
Unfortunately , the Hobie Company management won’t read these comments. Getting a skiff or Jon boat is the way to go. There is a lot of competition in kayak gear out there. If the company is that greedy with their electric motor screw the kayak and get a real boat. A loaded Pro Angler is no fun to cart around anyway.

The purpous of owning a kayak is because you can't afford the real thing ! With these ridiculous price they spend just to look poor , absolutely crazy ! No thanks ... I just stick to my cheaper poor jon boat . Atleast I can take some buddy and go faster and safer on water .
This looks like a giant pain in the ass. Incredibly impractical. Who wants to get out of their seat to switch drives. Just another rip off hipster gimmick.

L Watts make sure u use a battery box
What model is the Hobie in the video? Does it come with the electric plug mount in front of the motor or is the custom?
Exactly, a good used bass boat can be had for 2k.
you have have the same thing with a standard trolling motor if your great with customizing a mount
I'm totally buying this

How many minutes will that small battery last on full speed and on slow speed?

45 min

Lets see sitting in a flat bottom boat vs one of these is the difference between square dancing and break dancing.
pretty cool
Any idea how long the battery will last at full throttle?
Half hour , may be an hour . Not a good option

@@keepitreelcatfishing5883 how long does the trolling motor run on that battery
John shacklefert 6 hrs
What song is this? Reminds me of "How Many More Times" by Led Zeppelin.
Please can someone let me know the title of the song in this video ???😊🤔Thanks.
Credits at the end of the video say it is "Big Booty Woman" by Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears

2k for a trolling motor... i can buy a john boat and go 5x that speed for the same price as just the motor...
Usmc Gruntz it's called portability
But what about the title of the song on this video🤔😂????
So go to that you tube page.
Como importo um kaiak desses para o brasil?

i want this baaaad
at this point your better of getting a flat bottum boat with a trolling motor on it, and cheaper
for the money they ask for these hobies, better off buying a boat you can take a mate in for alot less....

$500 the most but if you dont like your money just buy this peace of shit for $3500
id rather pedal that way i dont have my hands busy on that control panel
plus youll spend less
pro angler in New Zealand is $5700
Palpac would be the same for native and the other brands at the same level..

It is good for an emergency cases when something goes wrong to your other drive where your boat stranded somewhere.
