Hey everyone,
My wife gave me the go ahead to get two more Hobies. This will bring my count to four. Two Outbacks and a compass and old outfitter. I have a 14 Silverado with a short bed that I've been transporting one outback and the outfitter stacked with a bed extension. My question for those who have multiple kayaks, how do you transport them? Should I just get the trailer or possibly a ladder rack? Pics appreciated if you have them.

Im in a similar situation (AI,TI,Sport, 2 x Eclipse + paddle boards).

I have the SUT 450-M6 as my main trailer. Its not quite as heavy duty as I would like for the Islands, but had it for a year now, couple trips- no issues.

After owning regular galvanized trailers and Trailex, I do like how light and easy the trailer is to maneuver around. You just have to weigh the cost.

I keep everything on the trailers- if you have sufficient storage options outside of the trailer, a bed rack may work, but would be difficult loading at that height.
