The Quest 12.5 is Hobie's swiftest solo paddle kayak, with a sleek, swell-eating stride. It has the sea legs for light touring, and excels for fishing. The rotomolded polyethylene hull features generous below-deck stowage, ample space for tackle boxes or tents, plus molded rod holders for trolling. A large, bungee-secured stern cargo area accommodates everything from optional tackle to a Hobie Livewell, and an optional Twist and Stow rudder with foot steering control.
