Kayak Trailers
Did you guys see this kayak trailer at Fred Hall Show?  I've seen it three years in a row but I don't see it in any of magazines to buy or order...does anybody know where I can get one?

I'm presently using a T-Bar that goes into my hitch reciever and put my tailgate down and run my yak into the bed of my truck...but it still sticks out to far...afraid I might get a ticket...unless I could put tail lights on my T-bar?

I thought about getting a trailer like that. It's a hump to get my heavy yak up and off the SUV. Especially from the side. The front is not bad, because I have the rollers. I've scratched the hel out of my hood and side panels slipping sometimes. The trailer seems like a good solution, but then you need space to store it, and finding a double length parking space is a bit tougher.

Trailer space is not my problem...I have a bad rotater cup on left shoulder so as to lifting yak over my head to put on top of my truck would be a struggle...the T-Bar I have now is great but I'm not certain it would be legal down the highway...no problems yet from local cops...the shop that made it for me said it's not legal I told them I would take reponsibility...
