The TRUTH About The Hobie Lynx WATCH BEFORE BUYING

[@plague6079]

WOW am I glad I watched this video before pulling the trigger on buying a Lynx! I had a Pro Angler & it was great HOWEVER the 140 lbs was just too much! I saw the Lynx & 50lbs, I was so excited! I was a bit unhappy with the "Wet Aspect" but I can get rod holders, dry bag & somehow work something for tackle. I agree, for the price it should come with at least H brackets! BUT then the UGLY that was pointed out concerning the stress cracks & ease of damaging the bottom has made me reconsider the purchase! Thanks for pointing out the Pros & Cons! Saved me $3500+!

[@jasperhayesusa]

Your review is exactly what I would have said. I have this kayak and love it, but you are correct it is extremely delicate, I dropped it from my tail bed and punctured a hole. I also added a seat riser but that punctured it too. The stability and control are great, Hobie should reinforce the bottom and I would definitely buy another one.

[@southernsalt]

Definitely!

[@michaelskalin5126]

Hard to believe the hull is so fragile. Thanks for sharing your knowledge again. 🍻🇨🇦

[@stephencook2545]

Hobie doesn't include the H-Rails and Turbo Fins because, like you said, that's the first thing everyone goes and purchases from them after buying the kayak. Plus, again like you said, everyone also has to go and reinforce the vulnerable areas (a lot of them) so they're spending another little bundle to make it more durable. I started saving for this kayak not long after it was first released. Since then it has gone up in price exponentially. I can't justify paying that much for a kayak anymore. I won't use it nearly enough to justify that. So, I'm looking for the next lightest, pedal drive kayak, that has good fishability. I wish this was a practical option for me, but it's just not. Thanks a bunch for your review.

[@TWC6724]

Totally agree

[@stevegallenstein]

$3300 + 350 for h rail and fins + 250 for gator skin. Almost 4k is insane.

[@stephencook2545]

@@stevegallenstein Exactly. Insane. But as long as people keep buying them, nothing will change.

[@dcm4692]

Try a pelican 110 , 130 or their getaway (similar style to this Hobie). They are durable and a third of the price. If you find yourself kayaking more you can always upgrade. But if you find yourself not getting on the water as often as you’d like you won’t have buyers remorse and have saved thousands of dollars

[@TheZX11]

​@@stephencook2545 Yep. They still sell fast. Mine was $300 off on sale (Hobie August sale). I went back and forth on buying it before I finally did. Really like the weight loss/simplicity in the Lynx versus my Revolution 13.

[@TheZX11]

The Lynx is a fiberglass surf board/paddle board with a last coat of plastic vacuum formed onto it. Treat it like a surf board (or the Hobie Eclipse) and it is fine. Likely the "paddle board with a seat" as its design, is why no H-rails and just T-tracks and hold down points. Keeps it as a fancy paddle board for some customers. On the upside, it is easy to repair like any surf board. You could rip the front off and epoxy it back together with some fiber glass strips and filler like the surf guys do. My hull alone with H-rails and Hobie deck matt is 62lbs on my scale. Similar to my Eclipse weight.

[@Michdave700]

Great review, on target. I’ve used mine for a year, in freshwater lakes, and I love it, I’m a car topper. On hull protection, I went cheap and it’s worked very well- 1” wide automotive self adhesive trim stripping from Amazon applied to the keel line and bow and near the bottom edge each side, at the chine. I trimmed each end of each strip into a tapered point for bet water flow and so the end of the strip didn’t catch on anything. The strips have done their job and would be a cinch to replace if they did fall off. $30 for 25 ft roll. Also good are the extended stern drag strips from Navarre Kayak Fishing, replacing the original ones, they protect the stern more when maneuvering the kayak around during loading/unloading from the car top or cart. A cheap milk crate and fabric side pockets on the side of the seat take care of my storage needs. Yes, this kayak is overpriced but to me nothing else compares in terms of light weight combined with its performance and capabilities.

[@southernsalt]

🙌 thanks man!

[@TWC6724]

This is intriguing. I have a native slayer max and have been seriously looking at something lighter since I’m 47 and my shoulders and ankles aren’t what they used to be. Been looking at these and the inflatables. Are there any other brands that are decent that can compare? Hobie is just so dang expensive!

[@TheZX11]

@@TWC6724 Can't beat the Hobie itek9 for low weight easy of carry. 20 lbs hull on it. It's also a bit cheaper. They are easy to inflate with an $80-ish Amazon SUP electric pump. I was worried about seams failing on it so I went with the Lynx. They are the similar kayaks but hardshell or inflatable. Paddleboarders claim seam repair is easy to re-glue but I wasn't sure for long term use and storage. Otherwise the Lynx is pretty light and I hand carry mine 75 yards to a shed I have in a field (with some max effort to not stop to rest as it is still awkward to hold).

[@soupra22]

I've had my kayak now for about a month and absolutely love it. I also have 2 other kaku zulus and 2 inflatables. This by far is the best option for my needs. I'll take the fragility of the kayak as I'll just patch it up as needed. I'll be testing it out this week on a trip to the Frio River. Only been out on a lake with it and it performs great there. Thanks for the review it's on point.

[@southernsalt]

Awesome brother!!

[@mackjenkins7721]

Brother that was a good review of the Hobie Lynx. It a good kayak for the lil problem that it has. I like how it is light weight to so you can put it on top of your car. I hope you & your family are doing good. Good video brother thanks you for sharing it.

[@Saltloony]

I have the same kayak in different color. Yes, you are absolutely accurate about everything mentioned in the video. I personally apply pvc keel guard as soon i purchase a new kayak. In my opinion it is a must to protect your investment.

[@southernsalt]

Yeah I need to put some on as well

[@Sam-w9des]

For the price shouldn't have to reinforce it imo

Hey Brother, that was a real review from a real angler! Much appreciated!

[@southernsalt]

[@TomyTekOutdoors]

Great information. I'm picking up my Lynx tomorrow. I'm getting the H-Rail and a bunch of other accessories. It would be nice if they had a premium option for the Lynx. Looks like I'll be adding a bunch of protection on the hull. It's nice that it's easy to fix, but you shouldn't have to when you spend that type of money on a kayak.

[@southernsalt]

Awesome man you’re going love it!

[@jasonwebster1884]

Great review! I use marine Tex to fill In scratch marks Or patching that needs to be done. It doesn’t eat way the foam inside and hardens really well.

[@southernsalt]

Nice, I’ll keep that in mind!

[@patriciolibenson3159]

Thank you sir for your objective analysis and fare comments. This saves me from buying one. I kayak as a job coming in and out of boats at least 4 times a week. This platform will brake in the very first trip. Another thing to add to your observations is that the pedal system is extremely weak and when it breaks due to friction you have to buy almost a new pedal system. I have the old pedals that have a center axis made out of stainless steel 316L. That lasts for ever. Hobie cheaped out on these pedals. I pedal around 8 hours a day. So the new pedals will not last. Thanks again!

[@fishnhub]

Thanks for the review, it shows I put my pereguard and burley keel guard in the right spots 😂. I can honestly say I don't want the H-rails, and my lynx is set up better than any lynx I can find on the internet imo. I use the yakgadget flex rod stager system where the h-rail would be and a modified double header to hold power pole and paddle. I made my own seat bars to give enough room to put a dewalt 2 drawer tough box with plano edge terminal box on top. I have watersnake t24 motor setup in the pedal drive controlled by pwm with a very small remote box attached to rudder steering knob with foward/reverse switch and throttle. Flambeau tough crate bottom holds 100ah lifepo4 battery box with all the quick connects, pwm remote wires, fish finder and power pole. Made custom 3600 box and tool holders out of abs plastic that bolt onto the sides of the seat for extra tackle. I had all winter to build my perfect kayak that was easy to set up /throw on top of a suv, and i wouldn't trade it for any other kayak.

[@TexasSlamFishing]

I'm hoping people are wrong about the quality of the hull but I did buy a 3M hull protector. I love my Lynx but it's partly because I'm one of the few people that use it for mothershipping on a boat. I need it to weigh 50lbs and I have learned to simplify the hell out of it with no rails and 1 rod and it works like a charm

[@southernsalt]

Good deal and good luck with the hull.

[@williamchandler2494]

Great video Nate thanks for the honest walkthrough on that lynx. I will have to say that you probably use yours mor than 95% of everyone else. I agree for what Hobie charges the H rails a small storage box and turbo fins should come with it. Keep up the great work on the channel.

[@southernsalt]

Thanks brother I appreciate it!!

[@sealwatcher1]

An excellent review that confirmed my initial suspicions about using this boat for fishing. Too fragile, and noisy/wet in mild chop will not work for frequent use, one hour of that slappy racket that paddle boards make would drive me nuts. It would be a perfect lightweight option for fishing in Rhode Island saltwater estuaries in good conditions, but I fish a lot, and 4k$ rigged for a specialty kayak that I would not use on every outing is a no-go for me. Going to pass on the Lynx and seek another semi-lightweight option, unless I can find a used one at a steep discount in the future. Thanks for posting this useful info!

[@lindsaycantrell2612]

Thanks for the excellent review, I hated my Lynx & was glad to be rid of it, choppy waters are deafening & wet, it doesn't track well with a sail & requires constant rudder adjustment, the cheap rubber paddle lock is a fingernail breaker and the hull dents like butter, plus all the other bad & ugly stuff

[@SpringHillDad]

Great points all the way around. The hull is WAY too soft. I added thin kydex (heat up with a hair dryer in order for it to conform) to the bottom just to keep the hull from being punctured. As for the accessories, Hobie is just other nickle & dime operation for each item. They should include the rails and the Turbo fins for the cost of this hybrid. $180 for a set of Turbo fins is ridiculous. $3200 + Tax for this is on the verge of unacceptable for all the reasons posted above.

[@Cbat1]

How has the Kydex worked for you? Would you recommend it? Has it stayed on pretty well? Thanks

[@SpringHillDad]

@@Cbat1 It has worked well and saved the hull. I ended up selling the Hobie a few months ago and the kydex was still holding strong. We have lots of rock beds here along with the sand bars so I was always worried before adding the layer.

[@dmnguye69]

I respectfully disagree that this kayak will get you wet. Totally correct that it will be a wet kayak given it's low hull design and everything on the kayak will be wet. However the person riding it will actually be more dry than an outback. You're sitting on a higher elevation and you're not so low like the outback so any water splashing on the lynx won't get you as easily. The hull on the lynx is slow narrow that when water hits it, it goes over the deck and drains out and won't make a big of a splash as an outback who's hull is thick giving it more surface area for the splash affect. I owned both so I'm speaking from experience. Another "good" thing about this kayak is that the repair is more solid than that of an outback. So you get scratch, gouge, etc, patch it up with putty weld, and it's not going to sink. You get a crack plastic hull on an outback and that is a huge deal. Overall you are spot on with the rest of the other comparison, it really depends on individual and tradeoffs that they're willing to make. I sold my outback and went with the lynx full time. The 47 lb hull is a game changer for tossing it on your car and just go fishing, fast, light and easy on you. The heavier the kayak and gears, to me it's the mental and physical hassle of lugging it around and actually makes you somewhat more lazy not to go :)

[@carla-tanyakochmann3846]

Really nice review. First thing that I did was get the H rails. Really want the Turbo pedals. Have not yet updated them yet.

[@doyledh]

Very helpful review. The boat sounds like something I need to buy and I will pay what I have to, but I'm concerned about the price and the durability issue. I'd like to wait for Hobie to upgrade the engineering on the Lynx, but I'll probably not wait.

[@Conference_Chair]

The fatigue marks on the sides could be from carrying the kayak by the H-Rail. Like you said, the shell is thin, so carrying the kayak by a single H-Rail could be torquing the mounting rails, and stressing the shell.

[@Tigermeg816]

I have a PA14 already: not getting rid of PA but looking to add the Lynx as an alternative when the conditions are right and to have something to use if I need an extra boat. I would probably put the extra person in my PA and rock the Lynx. Also I drive a 4Runner that’s lifted on 35s. I don’t like having to have a trailer with me all the time. PA14s are stored in a toy hauler in grand isle….. Lynx would give me something highly mobile and take 2 hours off my drive time so I wouldn’t have to go get it in GI then back track to PAC

[@Violence0vAction]

Thank you so much - saved me $ - ocean fish on 2015 hobie outback north of Boston. - too heavy to lug around fully equipped- looked at lynx - always breezy here. No chance that thing staying even semi dry. Water 50-Apr 65f Sept - Don’t like the damage. Fish shallow in rocks - it’d be holy🤣.

[@brianhoyt2469]

Good review! I like the sound of a shallow storage bin but I feel like it’s not doable with the hull being do thin. I don’t thinking fitting it in would be the issue so much as accounting for the depth of a hatch+bin really be compromising hull strength, especially with that super thin soft plastic shell.

[@MrSteve280]

Excellent. I'm in the market for a Lynx and this video is very helpful. Your insight on the "delicate" hull lets me do this with full knowledge of the drawbacks. You mentioned salt water. Can you provide some more feedback on the limitations of the Lynx in sound or calm ocean waters? Thanks much.

[@victorbird4777]

Geatly appreciate your knowledge, and I thank you for sharing it. Excellent review. Agree 100% the Lynx should have turbofins at this price point. I do not agree that the Lynx is a wise fishing platform. Come on, it is paddle board material. It isn't made for fishing. I have a couple of Outbacks and Passports. They are durable boats. The Outback is excellent for fishing. Use the right kayak for the activity.

[@PrestonBosarge-w8d]

I’m looking hard at a lynx right now. This reminds me of a Boston whaler. They had very thin gel coat and then a thin skin coat and foam. Older Boston whalers were bad about chipping and cracks. They cost x5 what another 17 ft boat cost. Enter Hobie. You pay for engineering and design. I’m sure they will offer a pro angler lynx 2 and will come with everything you wished for. It will cost 6k and people will stand in line to buy one. I subscribed to your vids. You fishing my waters I see. lol. P-goula. Also he fishes that thing more in one year than 90% of the keyboard anglers. Let me know if you want to sell it cheap. I can do glass work. lol. Tight lines.

I don’t agree that the kayak is a wet ride. Yea, sure if you run it in insanely rough conditions, but a fairly windy day won’t make me wet at all. Regarding turbofins, I was thinking like you that it had to be added, but my dealer adviced me not to do it. They had did loads of test with and without, and came back with the conclusion that it only added more strain and minor speed.

[@Tayjuice]

Also, they kayak has a paddle holder

[@southernsalt]

I’m not sure where the paddle holder comment came from but whatever lol. As for it being a wet ride, it is 100 percent going to get you wet if there is ANY chop on the water. As far as the turbo fins it ABSOLUTELY ads speed in torque to the kayak but what do I know I’m just a guy that runs trips off of these kayaks everyday lol.
