I am about 50 miles from my nearest Hobie Kayak dealer and they do not carry accessories. I am familiar with kayakfishingstuff and have purchased items from them.
Does anybody know of an online dealer that carries all the merchandise in the catalog? I'd like to get one of those Hobie Kayak fishing t-shirts but I can't find them anywhere... and on Hobie's website it says
"We do not sell on-line or direct except for
a limited number of manuals and videos."
So does anybody know of an online merchant selling Hobie Kayak t-sirts and maybe has the Turbo Fins instock?

Not many dealers have all of these new accessories on hand. We are struggling to ship back orders and some items are still un-available.

Most any dealer can handle orders vis email, some have online ordering. But again, these new items are just that...new.

Hobie Cat offers a drop-ship service that can get orders direct to you as soon as tomorrow. Those orders go through dealers and we charge $5.00 for the service. Freight costs vary on distance and service choosen.

Can any one reccomend a website that has most of the Hobie merchandise for sale online?

I use kfs, but they don't carry everything.

most of the dealer are in the process of getting all the new stuff up, as well as getting there cart online and running. send a few e-mails out and see who has what you need. I know we are getting stuff in as soon as we can, however it is also going out just about as fast. Most of the new items are sold before they ever reach us. which items were you looking for, and by the way the new shirts are awesome we got some in the other day!

Thanks,

hobie.com is a retail surf shop. They are not connected to Hobie Cat or Hobie Kayaks other than being a trademark portal. Mostly they sell surfboards and T shirts.
