Hobie Mirage Pro Angler 14 360XR
with the
Wheeleez Kayak Cart Mini
We would not put this boat on this cart. The reasons below are not style preferences — they are the ways this fails.
Why we say no
-
Your load of 67.4 kg (149 lb) is over this cart's 55 kg (121 lb) rating.
Also worth knowing
-
This cart's contact pads suit flatter hulls. Your pontoon hull will want to roll on it.
-
Positioning matters on this boat: MirageDrive 360 well — a large mid-hull opening with a steerable drive below it.
- The 360 drive assembly projects further below the hull than a standard MirageDrive.
- Kick-up rudder at the stern.
