Can you transport an AI or TI with ama's folded in and the trampolines rolled up and attached to the front aka's at highway speeds?

Thank you

I do on my trailer. I have straps that wrap around the whole boat is several places.

I noticed that you have a black 'plastic' deflector which fits on your
fore ward crossbar. Was this item specially made for your tandem?
Or is it available commercially? I have wanted such a feature since
I bought my tandem.

The deflector is made from a polyethylene five gallon plastic bucket. I have a plastic welder that I use to make some different parts on the boat.

I thought it was 1/3 of a plastic Christmas tree base. :lol:

That boat is quite tricked out! Nice! :)

Hey DogsLife - do you have any pics of just your trailer? I picked up my new TI last thursday and have an old trailer to modify. I had considered using the Hobie shaped supports but noticed the main hull sits nicely on a flat surface. I note the rear ends of the amas drop lower than the main hull. Any trailer pics would be helpful.
