Kayaks

Since 1950, Hobie Cat Company has been in the business of shaping a unique lifestyle based around
fun, water, and quality products.
In 1950, Hobart "Hobie" Alter founded his company to bring together his two loves, wood shop and water. After a few years Hobie and fellow surfer Gordon Clark began experiments making surfboards out of foam and fiberglass. These surfboards were lighter, faster, and more responsive than anything else in the water. During the 1960s, while the Beach Boys were making records, Hobie's surf team riders were setting them.
There are well over 100,000 Hobie Cats around the world, many as part of fleets and regattas, and others for pure fun and enjoyment.
Hobie's inspiration continues with the current line of technically advanced sailboats, kayaks, and unique fishing watercraft.

We've reached a new high in sitting down. For a boat that's only 5-feet in length, you'll appreciate a heightened level of visibility and comfort. Literally. You see, in a Float Cat you're sitting up, completely out of the water. Not only have we raised your level of seating, we've raised your level of enjoyment. Which calls for a toast. Just put your cup, or glass, or tall cool one, in our convenient molded-in cup holder.
The 60" Float Cat 60 is small and agile, and designed for hard-to-get-into and, of course, hard-to-get-out-of fishing spots. You'll catch fish that outweigh your boat. At a scant 21 pounds, the Float Cat 60 is light enough for your car. Or your back.
