My wife showed a little interest in a native propel in the gator bait color and I'm wanting to jump right on it since she has a bad neck and shoulder a peddle kayak is her only way to go. If someone wants to hit a lake somewhere that owns one I would appreciate it if not who has them at the demo days? I want to get her in one while the interest is high.

Not sure about native man, but hobie dealers all do demos, I'm sure someone would be willing to put her in one to try it out.

With the neck and shoulder issues the reverse is important with the feet.

Although not real convenient, most Hobie owners do not know you can actually  "reverse pedal drive it" by installing the Mirage Drive backwards....just turn it around and everything lines up and locks in place.  ;)

Dr steelhead is right we have reverse also, shannon crabbycabby has a native yak, hit him up if he is close, maybe she could pedal his and try it, then put her in a Hobie.

Thanks smiley, I did and we hit PC today and took TLW to Lake Lytle and she did a couple short laps and now I got to start saving for one. She said she was relaxed and calm even when looking into the water. I also took a short lap, hurt my hip like hell at first but started to feel a little better after a few minutes. I may try a hobie but I will need to get her a propel first. THANK YOU crabbycabby TLW said THANK YOU as well.

Nice, was it rough out? It didn't seem to bother you when we were out, I was a little woozy at times but the excitement took over after that first fish I didn't even care..lol...
