The Hobie Compass – A Proven Favourite for Anglers & Explorers
The Hobie Compass has earned its reputation as one of the best-balanced kayaks in Hobie’s lineup. It combines the maneuverability and ease-of-use of the Outback with the simplicity and lightweight footprint of the Passport—making it perfect for:
-
Beginner to intermediate kayak anglers wanting a stable, confidence-inspiring platform
-
Inshore and estuary fishermen chasing bream, flathead, snapper or jacks
-
Lakes, dams & river explorers who appreciate efficiency and comfort over long distances
-
Kayakers wanting Hobie performance without the higher price tag of top-tier models
At 12 feet long with a generous beam, the Compass offers exceptional stability while still maintaining excellent glide. New users immediately appreciate how simple it is to pedal, steer, and fish from—even in choppy conditions.
The Hobie Compass is one of Australia’s most versatile pedal kayaks, used across estuaries, rivers, dams, and sheltered offshore waters. It’s trusted by anglers chasing everything from bream, flathead, and whiting to hard-hitting species like mangrove jack, jewfish, trevally, threadfin, tuna and barramundi. The fish you target is up to your own adventure. Whether exploring remote creeks, covering big stretches of open water, or hunting trophy fish, the Compass adapts effortlessly. Its capability is limited only by your imagination and your anticipation for adventure, making it a favourite platform for Aussie fishos who want to do it all.
Packed with Performance
This 2022 Hobie compass includes the MirageDrive MD180 (+GOSS Ceramic Upgrade) pedal system, allowing forward and reverse, plus Kick-Up Fins that automatically retract on impact—perfect for shallow waters, oyster beds or structure-heavy fishing grounds.
Other standout features include:
-
Ultra-stable hull for standing casts
-
Raised Vantage-style seat for all-day comfort
-
H-track mounts for fishfinders, rod holders, cameras or accessories
-
Generous rear cargo well that fits a livewell, cooler, crate or camping gear
-
Bow storage and drink holders for convenience on long sessions
-
Rudder steering for precise tracking in wind and current
The Compass strikes the perfect middle ground: light enough to car-top, capable enough for offshore runs on the right day, and stable enough for serious sportfishing.
What Makes the Hobie Compass a Great Option

Whether you want a sounder, power system, rod holders or a full offshore setup, the Compass accepts modifications easily thanks to its clean deck layout and multiple mounting points.
