Hobie Oasis
The Hobie Oasis tandem is the fastest tandem kayak in Hobie's Mirage range. The Oasis was designed for covering longer distances at the water, for touring and fishing. With two Mirage Drives in use and a sleek 14ft 4in length, the Oasis really is a speed machine! Whilst being sleek, the Oasis does not lack in stability and will comfortably take two mid-sized kayakers and enough gear for a long day session or multi-day camping/fishing trip.
The Oasis performs well in a variety of conditions, from calm inland lakes and waterways to moderate coastal and more demanding open sea conditions. Either person can pedal it, paddle it or sail it (with optional sailing kit). You can also enjoy it solo with a single kayaker in the rear seat. The fingertip steering of the twist-n-stow rudder system offers the user hands free travelling, ideal for fishing, photography or bird watching. Steering controls can be found alongside each seat allowing either user to control the rudder system.
The Oasis is propelled through the water using the all-new revolutionary Mirage Drive 180 system - full power pedal drive in forwards... and reverse! Switching between forwards and reverse is as simple and easy as pulling a toggle on the drive system. The drive system features 'Glide Technology' with roller bearings found on the major pivoting components of the drive, for a smoother and easier pedalling experience. The Mirage Drive 180 comes equipped with the new Kick Up Fins. Kick Up fins offer worry-free pedalling - should you strike an object with the fins they simply kick up out of harms way to help reduce the risk of damage.
Comfortable seating is ensured by the Vantage CT seats. These are fully adjustable to allow you to get into a comfortable pedalling position and also feature Boa® System Lumbar Support.
This is the perfect tandem kayak for those looking for performance, speed and comfort for longer trips on the water.
The Hobie Oasis comes with 2 x Hobie Mirage Drive 180 Systems with Kick Up Fins, 2 x Vantage CT seats, paddle, rudder system, Twist-Lock hatches, Sail Mount and more!!
