So....I've been pondering this question for some time: should I carry our two kayaks on the TC roof or get a small purpose-built kayak trailer? Both solutions have pros and cons. I like the idea ...
I have a trailer because I have a BIG kayak,the Hobie PA14. Weighs about 150 pounds outfitted. Plus, my camper load is already over.
I have zero problems with using the trailer mainly because I have a camera so I can watch it as I roll down the road and backing up.
Here is the big reason to have or have not a trailer; which way are you most likely to actually USE your kayak? The trailer allows me to use it a lot. It's always ready to go; just hook up and drive away.
