How to protect the hull of your Hobie Mirage Lynx from damage

[@billschmitzer9159]

Thanks, that was helpful and I think a good idea.

Thanks Bill, I've been using the Hobie Lynx for 2 years now, and the hull protection measures I implemented, have definitely made a big difference

Defo I need those 👌🎣 thanks for sharing mate 👍💯

Just checked my Lynx which is almost a year old. I seem to need the same Keeleasy protection spots that you are protecting. Would you share the width you used and the length of each of the pieces?

[@steelcurtaintd]

What size keel tape did you use, never mind. I see you did say the 2 inch width and 6m to do the whole boat I’m guessing . Your lynx looks great! Nice job

[@dizzyfish]

@steelcurtaintd thanks, yes 6m of 2 inch keeleazy

[@patmoulds]

How has the Keeleasy held up?

[@dizzyfish]

It has performed really well. I am in the process of applying the same keeleazy to another boat at the moment. I kind of assumed that the adhesive would give, and it would start to peel off, but it has stayed on perfectly

We're did you buy it

[@dizzyfish]

Hi @pine cone - I bought it from Shore Thing (Hobie Center), based at Poole, Dorset. Great place, and excellent after sales support too. You can also try before you buy (they are right on the water)

It’s more of a sit down PADDLE BOARD than a kayak ….. and needs to be handled more like a paddle board or surfboard.
