Leak test in progress to see how much water enters through the rudder line holes  ;)

Is this how Hobie reps test the max capacity? Seems legit.
My wife thinks fishing is merely guys wandering around like idiots swinging sticks in the air. Many of my trips prove how smart she really is.

And the rear hatch.  They were out there like that for quite awhile.  I am curious how much water got in.

The rear jump seat was a bit wet, but having a personal chauffeur more than made up for it.  As far as water it looked like only a liter or so got in.

i was surprised that the didn't tip over when they got hit by PB wakes.  I guess it shows how awesome the outback (tandem) is.
