Well?Hobie did it again. They have taken innovation to new levels before and they did it again with the Hobie Mirage Inflatable i12 single and i14 tandem. Inflates in minutes, performs like its hard shelled brother and folds away into a rollaway bag for convenient storage.

| Review: | We have had a 12ft hard body Mirage for several years. I bought the inflatable as a second kayak so my husband and I can go out together. WE have both tried it now and agreee that it is much more stable than the hard body but not as fast. The we carry the hard body and our inflatable dingy fully inflated on the aft deck of our lobster boat. We live in southern California and travel to Catalina Island frequently. We did not have room for another hard-body so the inflatable was the answer. It is very easy to inflate and set up. Our only complaint is that it is really very difficult to fold and pack into the carry bag making storage a bit of a problem. I am very satisfied with the kayak itself but disagree with the suggestion the it is easy to transport. At 53 lbs without the peddles and other asserories included transportation is a challenge. We would like to be able to stoe it on the boat but it takes up a lot of room. | ||||

| Review: | My wife and I have a 9 and 12 inflatable and are absolutely awesome. The engineering is incredible in the construction of the hull, mirage drive and rudder system is terrific. I use the 12' Hobie and upgraded to the Turbo Fins, larger Rudder and sail kit. The only advancement I would like to see Hobie include is a cleat for the main sheet. It gets tiring if sailing for over 2 hours. Everyone that has seen us pedal or sail is blown away at the technology of the mirage drive. I have adjusted the Turbo Fins to "tight for sailing and loose for pedaling. As earlier stated if you use the pedals while sailing is is awesome, plus you get a great workout. I never give reviews but in this case I was compelled. This is a kayak you will never sell. A+ for engineering, construction, durability and just plain fun. Enjoy!!! | ||||

| Review: | Awesome !! Everyone stops to ask about it. Very fast and easy to inflate and deflate. Fold up not bad at all. Need the wheel attachment, makes life easier. Great storage compartment. Love the steering. My 10 year old can sit right behind me. I need another one !!!! | ||||

| Review: | I've had a 9' Hobie Mirage Sport hard shell kayak for 2 years and wanted an inflatable so I could bring two kayaks camping in our SUV and carry a kayak in the back of my Prius for spur of the moment outings. The Hobie i12S is quick to inflate and handles very much like the hard shell version. The rudder control feels a little tentative compared to the hard shell, but that is the only issue I've noticed. Packing up is easy once you get the hang of it. I purchased strap-on wheels instead of the Hobie wheels since I have to traverse rough ground. Very pleased with the i12S. It's more expensive than a hard shell because of all the additional manufacturing steps, but it seems durable and well made. | ||||
