Instructions

Here is the instruction:

Hobie Mirage Outback and Adventure drive well strengthening kit.

Note: This complete kit may not be needed for older Outback models due to the length of the camlock knob bolts. Outbacks built before August of 2003 (Serial number 3753) should not need the longer bolts. Those boats would have appropriate bolt lengths. Boats built after that serial number are suspect due to a change in the mold shape.

It has come to our attention that the camlock knobs can flex out of column under heavy loads. This may allow the knobs to ratchet.
