2026 Hobie iTrek 9 Ultralight

The Hobie iTrek 9 Ultralight is a lightweight inflatable pedal kayak weighing just 20 pounds, with a 350-pound weight capacity. The composite hull measures 9 feet long and folds to a compact size for convenient storage and transport. Power comes from the MirageDrive GT pedal drive system, fitted with kick-up fins and rudder control for responsive handling and intuitive maneuvering in shallow water.

The kayak features an elevated iTrek seat designed for comfort and breathability during extended time on the water. The hull is constructed from 550 denier PVC, with an EVA deck pad, locking valves, and an aft cargo area for gear. Handles are positioned at the bow, mid-section, and stern for easy carrying and launching.

The iTrek 9 converts readily between kayak and standup paddleboard modes by removing the pedal drive and switching to paddling. A three-piece paddle and paddle holder are included, along with a removable rudder for added versatility.
