The Passport 10.5 R uses a rotomolded 34 inch wide hull with Hobie’s MirageDrive GT pedal drive, whose Kick-Up Fins fold on impact with rocks or logs and redeploy after. It has a stowable rudder, a breathable mesh frame seat, an 8 inch Twist-n-Seal hatch, bow and stern cargo areas, and two rod holders for lakes, ponds and calm bays.

- Check the 275 lb seat capacity as well as the 325 lb boat capacity if you are a bigger paddler.
KayakDIY take: It is a light way into Hobie pedal power, and the Kick-Up Fins are handy in shallow, snaggy water. Read my full Hobie Mirage Passport 10.5 R review.
