Transport by trailer
I was all set to buy a new Wilderness Systems Tarpon 120 for my wife and a Pungo 140 for myself. I love the Tarpon, but though I would get something different. I have Kayaked once last Sunday and we are both hooked. Want to start fishing also
Here is what killed the sale today. I have a Tundra Limited 4X4. It has that huge rear cab so the bed is only 5 ft. I was going to slide both kayaks in with tailgate down (I also have a snuglid). Then I was told that 5 ft of the Tarpon and 7 ft (thats half the length) of the Pongo would be sticking out unsupported and it would create stress cracks. That makes sense. I am 55 and the thought of hoisting thos kayaks up on a hitch rack would be kind of difficult. My only other option is a trailer for kayaks. Anybody use a trailer? I never see them on the road. A rack for the truck bed is out since I want to keep my SnugLid. What to do. I want a kayak real bad!!!! |

I took your advice. Went and bought a Tarpon 120 and a Tarpon 140 for myself. The bed extender worked perfect. We spen 3 hours on a lake today with 20mph headwinds. What a blast. Thans for your recommendation.
