Which Hobie?

What the hell is that? 

I put the cushion on any flat-cushioned seat (nubbin-side down) and it takes a whole lot of pressure off of the lower back. It's the best $15 you can spend.

Is it kind of like those "core balls" used at a desk?  I have a "core ball" I use about half the time and it works fairly well, but the shape is a little uncomfortable. I can see how this might be a little more comfortable.  Thanks.

Tinkering in the garage today I measured the "cockpit" length of my hobies.  As someone pointed out it's not technically the cockpit.  I was wanting to know what the length is from the back of the seat to the inside of a pedal in the forward-most position (the "legroom" maybe?), and compare it to other pedal kayaks.

I also set the drive's cant peg on 7 (the forward-most position on the drive).

On the Outback I measured starting from the top edge of the lower lumbar cushion (not all hobie seats have this cushion - I think the older ones have a flat seatback cushion).  To the inside of the pedal it's 45".  The outback is cramped for me.  Though I'm 6'7", so being cramped is not an unusual feeling

On the PA12 I measured from the bottom of the seat-back mesh when the seat is in the lower position.  To the inside of the pedal it is 48.5"  With FG's custom pedal arms it's a gigantic 51".  Despite other drawbacks, this is one of the things I really like about the PA12.  I usually peg the cant at 5 or 6.

I have it on good authority that the Slayer Propel is 48" with the seat all the way back. 

If anyone with any of these kayaks wants to doublecheck the measurements, definitely do.  I am also very interested in what the same measurement is on both the adventure and the revo 13.  Any owners of those kayaks want to measure & post that?

Had to go out and check. On my Revo measuring from the back, just below the one and only cushion To the flat edge of the pedal it is 45 1/2  inches at full extension.
