Just bought this Hobie PA14 deal for $500 AUD! How’d I do?

Were you armed ?

• Hobie Pro Angler 14 Kayak with Vantage Seat (used, stored in garage for 5 years)
• MirageDrive 180 (The pedal system with forward/reverse) (one strap is broken, so I’ll have to replace)
• Power-Pole Micro Anchor
• Hobie Trax 2-30 Beach Cart
• Raymarine Dragonfly Fishfinder

Need to replace the batteries, pedal strap and a few cords, but other than that, it’s in very good condition. He had it stored in a garage on top of a kayak mount, so no hull flattening.

I made a post in the local fishing group asking about kayaks (my first kayak) and this guy commented saying he had a Hobie PA14 for sale, so naturally I messaged him out of curiosity and this is what he offered. When I looked up how much Hobie PA14 went for I thought it was a scam at first, but I couldn’t resist. I inspected it a few days later and it was all legit, so I picked it up the following day.

The guy I bought it from had to sell it after moving up to Far North Queensland because he was too worried about crocs. He also bought a boat, so his wife wanted the kayak gone.

Holy steal!

Goll-*ee*, that’s a steal!

The damn power pole is more expensive than that!

You burned all your luck on this one
