Are these the only 2 pictures we have of the trailor's? All I need is a picture of the back and it's a done deal, and does it have the capability to carry more than 1 yak?

You, too? I had my torn shoulder socket sewn and anchored into place a couple of years ago. I should probably stick to nice sports like curling or golf.

Hey, what about this? If you're going to spend the $$$ for a trailer, maybe consider the Hullavator!

The Wilderness System's rep, Mark, had that trailer built for himself. I forget who he said built it, but I am sure we can find out, if Randy hasn't already.


One issue is that if you park at a pay parking lot, like Westward Beach (Pt. Dume) they charge you for TWO vehicles if you have the trailer. That kinda sucks.


Jon,


I have been looking at the Hullavator for myself, it seems to be pretty sweet, I just wonder about wind noise when you don't have the yak on the truck.

Mike,


Yeah, I am sure it would makesome wind noise. I always remove my Yakima racks during the week, though, so I can park in the garage. I am not sure how easy it would be to remove the Hullavator. A wind deflector would probably work to keep noise down. I'd like to know the details (height) on a Hullavator. Maybe I could leave it on and still fit in the garage.


I tried a Boatloader setup, but ended up making a big scrape mark on the side of my SUV. I bought a rug to put on the side of the SUV if I have to do it again. For now, the rollerloader is my best bet.


-John

I saw that trailer at Haskell's beach parking lot last year!
