Will the new loader for the Outback fit a 2019 PA 12 ? Looks like it would help limit the damage on the hull when loading in the truck bed. Wondering if anyone has tried for fit.

No but I've been trying to figure out a way to do it. It does snap on to 1" PVC perfectly but the PVC pipe doesn't fit over the h-rail part of the handle. Been trying to hog out the pipe with a drum sander but it is really slow and I think it will be too thin. Have another idea I'm trying tomorrow.

The loaders add the skids that are already standard on the Pro Angler models. Not sure what you gain. Maybe a bit of lift at the rear.

Exactly, a little extra lift. I am looking at possibly putting the large rudder on there so could use a little more lift.

Finally had some time to try out my idea and it worked well. Made a short video and posted it on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKEoJOg ... e=youtu.be
