I just put mine on our PA14 with my 14 year old son helping out. These directions are most definitely the best on RUclips, everyone just watch this one. I also bought my PA and Outback from headwaters and gotta say, it was an awesome experience. They hooked me up with a trailer for both yaks and also had patience when my work schedule changed and I couldn’t pick them up right away. Super customer service, some great folks working there, highly recommend the company and this video.
Just want to thank you guys for all your help on our recent purchases at your shop! Hands down best customer service I’ve ever had! Well we had! (My brother and I) look forward to having you guys install my new Boondox on my PA 14! Thank you again!
That was really well done. There are other videos out there, but most of them are done by people that are doing it for the first time. It was clear that you’ve done many of them. I was going to have someone do it for me but after watching you, I’m sure I could do it myself. Thanks.
Does the groovy bar get in the way of the big beach wheel hobie cart when stored upside down after you launch? What's the maximum load weight limit on these? Can i fully load my kayak?
If you have extremely long skinny arms, you might be able to reach it. I had a buddy help me and he was 6’4” tall and we still had to use fishing line to fish the bracket up. His arms could not reach due to the acute angle and small opening in the rear of the PA. Hope this helps.
Drilling holes do not void the warranty. Hobie instructs you to drill holes for many accessories. Installing the landing gear does not void the warranty but they will not cover any cracks caused by the landing gear. That said I have had this on numerous fully rigged kayaks without issues.
They don't make a kit specifically for the compass, but I'm sure we can figure out a way to mount one. We'll definitely put that on the list of videos to make!
Thanks for this video. I just installed mine. The instructions that come with it are less than helpful. Following your video made the install a breeze. About an hour for me.
If the Landing Gear does cause a crack it is not covered under the warranty. That being said, we have not had a problem since Boonedox has starting using bigger backing plates.

Watched 3 different videos on this install.... You were the clear winner 🏆 Thanks for the help 👍

Best instructions I've seen so far thank u
Thanks for a great video! I didn't notice where you used the marine silicone?
Killer tutorial. Best on RUclips
I came back here to thank you for this video. I made one of those rigging cable bullets and it work extremely well. thanks again!
Would you mind sharing how you made yours? Thanks in advance!
Just installed mine, thank you for the help, you made it a lot easier!
The first person that invents some similar Landing gear that doesn’t need holes drilled is gona hit the jackpot
you are absolutely right! I don´t want to drill any holes into my kayak!!!
Use a cart 😁
What a great tutorial! Very well explained, thank you!
Thank you, this video made this process much easier!
Thank you I installed mine step by step with your video worked perfect thank you.
Thank you for this. I definitely want some on my kayak this yr💪🏾
Hi Matt! I just discovered (and subscribed). Glad your pooch got to have (small 🤨) part in video. ☺️
Good instructional video! 😃👍
Thank you!

Nice edit guys.
Thanks! We’re going to start making more install and walkthrough videos so stay tuned.
Is it possible to actually reach all the way to the gunwale from the hatch? Hoping I won’t need extra rigging tools haha

What is the inside diameter of the wheels or the outside diameter of the bar that goes through the wheels?
Have a video on the front wheel kit
Nice job!!! How much cost this set of rollers???
300 dollars I believe
@@BassManStrikes not very cheap a? If i purchase to delivered to Hellas (Greece) should be the double...
Awesome Matt Thx
Is it still under warranty with the added holes drilled into the body ?
Drilling holes do not void the warranty. Hobie instructs you to drill holes for many accessories. Installing the landing gear does not void the warranty but they will not cover any cracks caused by the landing gear. That said I have had this on numerous fully rigged kayaks without issues.
Could you show us the pic of the tool please just got my BD and want to fit it on the P14
Thank you
Where do you typically drill the holes on the PA12?
Would like to see if this is same procedure for PA 12 as for the PA 14? I think it is, but would like to get some validation on this.
Do they make this for the compass? I know the slopes makes the top of the deck uneven, but that would be a cool video too!
They don't make a kit specifically for the compass, but I'm sure we can figure out a way to mount one. We'll definitely put that on the list of videos to make!
Is it possible to put the landing gear on a 2021 outback too?
It sure is! If you purchase the Boonedox Standard Landing Gear kit it will come with the prices that you need for the install on the 2019+ Outback.

I heard this addon can void the warranty. Anyone used their BD landing gear for any length of time? Should I worry about this cracking the hull?
