There aren't many on CLs. Might be better to buy new. Check with NA or the kayak shed for year end close outs too.

End of the year is a good time to buy new. Sometimes it takes a while to find a used one that works for you.

It's certainly possible, it just doesn't seem to happen often. I mostly meant if you don't want one that is dinged up, new might be a better option. There are a couple of revos on CL too. Good luck!

Next adventure is AWESOME to deal with. Keep in mind the most recent one posted is the older generation of outback. Nothing really wrong with it, but I don't think it has as many bells and whistles as the newer ones.

Congratz on the outback.

Just a heads up, the willamette up by meldrums is running pretty fast.  I was up there a couple of weeks ago and had quite a hard time getting back up river.  I have a revo 13 with turbo fins and it took me 45 min to paddle(pedal) from meldrum up to clackamette.  With all this rain, the river is moving even faster.  I would recommend a part of the river that is slower fir your first venture.  Good luck.

Not sure on your experience level but a lake might have been a better staring option.
Congrats on your Hobie! Now the fun part, customizations :D

Always a good idea to get familiar with a new boat on a small lake.
