I own two inflatable kayaks: an i14T and an Innova Sunny. I recently purchased a double action hand pump with a gauge which I am hoping to use with both kayaks. It works well with the Innova but I have not yet found an adapter for the valves on the i14T. Can anyone tell me the type of valve (specific name) on the Hobie inflatables or the type of adapter I should be asking for? Anyone out there have an extra that they would sell me? Or, any ideas where I may find one? It has been -37 degrees Celcius (-35 degrees Fahrenheit) this last week and I find myself daydreaming about summer and getting out on the water again! Happy 2014! |

I believe the i14T is outfitted with Halkey-Roberts valves (https://www.google.com/search?q=halkey- ... 40&bih=734). The H-R valves match perfectly with the adapter fittings included with the K-Pump (http://www.kpump.com). I don't know if their adapters would fit your pump or if they sell the adapters separately, but you might try contacting them. |
