2026 Hobie 16

The Hobie 16 is an 11-foot composite-hulled runabout built for stability and ease of handling. With a narrow 3.33-foot beam, it delivers the compact footprint and maneuverability typical of the Hobie 16 design.

This boat is equipped with pedal propulsion via Hobie's MirageDrive system, which uses fins for propulsion without requiring traditional engine power. The setup includes a rudder control and allows for hands-free operation, making it well-suited for casual cruising and fishing.

The boat accommodates two people comfortably and weighs just 28 pounds, allowing it to fold down and pack into a compact storage bag for transport and storage. Standard equipment includes bow, mid, and aft carry handles, an EVA deck pad, an aft cargo area with locking valves, a four-piece aluminum paddle, paddle holder, and a removable rudder with ambidextrous control.
