The Hobie insigna is upside down on my new Yak. Sure is comfortable thought. I love my new Outback. It is so fast normal speed is 2.5 mph without breaking a sweat, 6.0 mph as fast as I can peddle. 2.5 is plenty fast for me. :D

Now thats funny. :D It is unusal, when I wear it like a hat its right side up.
When I first got the o/b I took it over to my little nieces swimming pool and rocked it more than I would ever get shook out in the real world. You would have to do something really insane to turn that thing over. Its the greatest. Made for fishing. 8)

I think Hobie needs to design a decal the is self flipping, so when we put them on roof racks people can still read them!

BTW I'd love to see a picture of this!

Maybe this yak was meant to go to AUS, everything is upside down there!

Its upside down in the floating position. I dont have a roof rack. I just put it in the back of my pick up and go. What is good about it I know its mine. I can't wait to get the bigger rudder. 8)

Did you get a "Blem" credit on the price? We would have discounted that for a dealer.

Doesn't that assume that the dealer noticed and asked for a credit?

And shouldn't you be working on the parts guide? Or are you going to blame Brazos for a 1 day delay too? :lol:

I am so sorry. When I stated that the insigna upside down I should of been more clear the upside down insigna is on the seat. And I like it FTU would have given me a discount I am sure but I didn't notice it til I had it for a week. I am going to be more clear when I state anything in the future. You guys are great and this forum is going to be #1. :D

PS I am going to post a picture as soon as I can.
