Post subject: | Carrying a small kayak atop an Island |
I wanted to carry a small kayak along with my Tandem Island on the trailer. So I came up with a PVC structure to fit atop the TI to carry that kayak. The main idea is 4 cutoff PVC tees that rest on the crossbars and a frame that rests on those tees and allows the mast to fit beneath. Then I use the Hobie strap and some bungees or other tie downs to hold the small kayak in place. I have not tested it over long distances but it has worked well over several shorter (10-20 mile) trips. Photo album: https://goo.gl/photos/HHvCPuL9bJ8dJxpP6 |

That's an excellent idea. I'm going to see if it would work for my Revo 13 but place the kayak right side up as with PVC bunks for those occasional times I want to take kayakless friends to the lake. Thanks for posting. Chris |
