Hobie Rectangular Hatch Kit Vertical

Follow along as we show you how to install a Vertical Rectangular Hatch in the center of the cockpit and 8" round hatches in the bow and stern of your Mirage Passport 12 fishing kayak. The rectangular hatch in front of the seat accepts a Rectangular Gear Bucket and makes a great storage area for fishing tackle or other items you need quick access to on the water. We decided to move the factory installed 8" round hatch up to the bow for another storage point and a place to rest our fish finder battery. Additionally, we installed an 8" Twist and Seal hatch in the aft cargo deck to yield in-hull access for installing a Power Pole Micro & UL 8' Spike.

Since the seat change went into effect on 2022 MY Compass kayaks, the Vertical Rectangular Hatch Kit (pn 77701801) is no longer compatible.

Good news is the Horizontal Rectangular Hatch kit (pn 71707003) is still compatible. Fit of the rectangular gear bucket remains inconsistent.
