I don't have one of these boats but two potential fixes which would be more permanent. Get some exercise mat and cut it to fit the whole inside of the hatch. Use some spray adhesive and glue it down. Fix number two would involve silicon and some cling wrap. Put the cling wrap on the boat hatch and around it. Put generous amount of silicon on the lid, close it and let it dry. Remove the cling wrap and trim the extra silicon. We did this with airplane wing saddles and it would stick so well just from the suction force it would be hard to remove the wing.

Thanks for the fix video. New subscriber and Hobie Outback owner also. Feel your pain on having to upgrade seals on an expensive kayak. They definitely need to up their game on some simple fix’s for sure. Thanks again.

Still leaking pretty good at 15:04 (at the area where the hatch is attached, as you predicted might be an issue), were you able to solve that? Totally agree though: it's unsat that Outback owners are having to figure this out

Ryan Frost never could seem to fix it. Fortunately it’s a non issue with rain and waves. I agree total crap.

I'm also in NC and I have the same Hobie that also has the same problem so thanks for the cheap fix. I wasn't looking forward to grinding on my boat! Is that a Harbor Freight trailer that you converted into a twin kayak trailer? Nice looking setup. What kind of kayak mounts are those that are bolted onto the boards and where could I find a pair?

Chuck Jarrell No problem buddy glad I could help. That is a harbor freight trailer! They are a knock off of the Malone Seawings which are very pricey. I have my extra set for sale if your interested. Where in NC are you located? Thanks for checking out the channel!

I,m surprised you don't have issues with the scupper holes not draining because of their placement. I contacted Hobie and they basically told me I did not know what I was talking about, by the way its a PA 14.

What year is your outback? I have a 2019 that has two seals, one on the lip and one inside the hatch. Maybe they listened.

To tighten the Hatch all you had to do was shorten the bungee by unscrewing it from the kayak and shortening the cord....
