2023 Hobie Mirage Compass

The 2023 Hobie Mirage Compass is a 12-foot fishing kayak built from rotomolded composite with a 34-inch beam, designed for stability and performance across shallow and open water. It's powered by the MirageDrive 180 with Kick-Up Turbo Fins, which provide smooth forward and reverse propulsion while automatically retracting the fins on impact to protect against rocks, weeds, and shallow obstacles. The bow design tracks efficiently in open conditions while remaining maneuverable in confined spaces.

The cockpit emphasizes function for anglers. It features a breathable mesh seat, EVA-padded standing area for sight-fishing, and multiple rigging options including H-Track accessory mounts, molded rod holders, and a Lowrance-ready transducer cavity. An oversized rear cargo well handles crates, coolers, and livewells, while bow storage provides additional capacity for gear and supplies.

The DLX Camo finish combines a stealth color scheme with durable construction. The hull delivers solid stability for standing and casting, making the boat suitable for lake, river, and coastal fishing where both shallow-water access and open-water efficiency are priorities.
