Summary of Contents for Hobie Mirage Compass

  • Page 1 Hobie Compass/2019 Outback ® Anchor Trolley Installation Please read through the instruction manual before using this product.
  • Page 2 Your Mirage® Compass, Compass Duo or 2019+ Outback has limited in-hull access points. This version of Hobie’s Anchor Trolley kit uses well nuts for mounting the cheek block pulleys. Set the two cheek blocks ap proximately 12” from the bow and stern. Mark your drill locations and make 3/8”...
  • Page 3 Installation Once the holes are drilled, fasten each cheek block to the bow and stern locations using the correct well nut hardware assemblies. Turn the screw until the well nut becomes firmly fastened. You can use a drill set on a low clutch setting or hand tighten using a Phillips screw driver.
  • Page 4 Installation Untie one end of the line from the nylon ring and feed the line through the blocks so the ring and shock cord assembly is on the bottom. Re-tie the end of the line to the ring using an arbor knot so there is tension holding the line against the hull.
  • Page 5 Installation Create a 3/8” hole just below each end of the paddle groove on the starboard side, or at the same location and spacing on the port side, depending on your preference. Use the correct hardware assemblies to mount an eyelet post at each of these holes. This will act as a line guide, keeping your trolley line clear of the paddle on the starboard (right) side or steering handle on the port (left) side of the kayak.
  • Page 6 Installation Using the hatch in the center of the cockpit as an access point, create a 3/16” hole in your preferred location for mounting an eyelet post near the seat. Thru-bolt the eyelet post assembly using the correct hardware. This eyelet post will act as a tie-off point for fixing the trolley line at a given position.
  • Page 7 On The Water Use the mounted eyelet posts to tuck the trolley line underneath and keep it out of your way. Wrap the trolley line around the thru-bolted eyelet post to hold the anchor trolley in a fixed position. Attach your anchor point to the rear-most ring and move the trolley back to drift facing downstream/downwind.
