Hello, I'm getting ready to buy a PA12 and I'm trying to figure out storage and transportation. I have a Honda HR-V, and my current plan is to roof-mount the PA12 with a set of Yakima BigCatch mounts and use a Rhino Rack Universal Side Loader to help get the kayak on and off the roof. Everything I read tells me this should work, but consensus seems to be that I really should get a trailer.

Previously I ruled this out because I have no place to put a trailer. I have a 2-car garage but that's where we keep the cars. I have a side yard I could keep one in, but there's a 42 in wide gate in the way.

Recently I found this foldable trailer from Northern Tool Ultra-Tow 4ft x 8 ft Folding Utility Trailer and that caught my interest because I could fit it through my gate, but it has a max speed of 45 mph and any of the fishing spots I'd drive to have roads where 70 mph is the safe lower speed limit. I also found the Bulldog Folding Kayak / Canoe Trailer, but I'm waiting to find out if I can get one in Texas.

Does anyone have a suggestion for any other trailers that might suit my needs?

Thanks!

Wrong forum, this is the Hobie Islands forum covering the Hobie Adventure Island and the Hobie Tandem Island.

You should post this in the Hobie Mirage Pro Anglers forum.
