Customizing a Hobie Pro Angler 14: Adding a Second Seat and More
I show how I installed a second skipper seat on my Hobie Pro Angler 14 and walk through other mods like rod holders and camera mounts.
What’s in this video
This is how I turned my Hobie Pro Angler 14 into a two person boat by installing a second skipper seat. I start with how I haul it in the truck bed, then get into the seat install.
Along the way I also cover rod holder mods, camera mounts, carts for the PA14 and PA12, and other useful fishing modifications. I plan to expand on each of these in future videos, starting with my anchor setup.
Key moments
Quick takeaways
- A second skipper seat can be added to the Hobie Pro Angler 14 to carry two people.
- Rod holder mods and camera mounts are easy upgrades on the PA14.
- Plan a cart for the PA14 or PA12, it is a heavy kayak to move.
