Reviewed by: Kevin Goyer ,  Car Camper , from Rapid City SD

Price Paid:  $650.00 at Black Hills Flyfishe

Summary:
The Hobie Float Cat 75 is a well-designed and durable unit and I use it often; the anchor kit works well with a 10-lb mushroom. I put a 30lb MinnKota motor on it; however, the weight of the motor, battery, and anchor causes the front of the Cat to ride a little high - don't use the top two speeds on this motor. I'm on the edge with this setup, but it works great - also fits in my 4by6 trailer or on my Yakima bike rack. I'm not a car camper, but had to select something.

Reviewed by: terr222 ,  30 days a year , from duluth, MN

Price Paid:  $700.00 at Feathercraft

Summary:
I've had my Hobie a little over a year now, probably 30 uses. I've NEVER had a problem with the oars, and in fact find them strong and well designed. And I do frequently lean on them pretty hard. I use flippers as well for maneuvering while fishing. The hobie tracks well, feels very secure, and is a well made product in my opinion.

Customer Service:
none needed as of yet
