For kayak trailer, are we required to purchase some insurance, just like our auto insurance? Or basically, it is still covered by our existing auto insurance..? Is the insurance a necessary before we can register it to DMV..?
The kits ad up fast. $1500 for a basic light is tad high for me. Luckily I got a 5 1/2' X 9' long Utility Trailer for $200 that I'm converting to hold my 2 Old Town Salty PDL'S. I do like the design of this Trailer & the options but that $$ ads up quickly when your all said & done.
Informative video. In the market for a trailer. We have a Nucanoe Unlimited 41” wide and a F10 39” wide. Would this trailer handle the width of both? What’s your thoughts on yearly trips with the trailer from Michigan to Florida? Thanks for the input.
@ManicI know...after 7 yrs on RU-vid and thousands of great conversations and helpful comments and replies I've had with all of you on here I know I'm going to regret, as always, responding to a pissy moron But... here it goes. Millions of people take their fishing kayaks to other lakes or states/parts of the ocean to fish. Me included. Millions travel sometimes for days, across country to just kayak on other lakes and enjoy the great outdoors. Millions of people kayak and don't camp. Millions of people kayak and camp in a tent. Others, kayak and stay in a hotel, with friends, family, rent cabins, stay in rental homes, on their boat or stay in there 2nd home. There are also several "kayak" trailers that are not highway rated. They're intended to be pulled through town at "city" driving speeds only. Based on the non radial looking tires, non car or typical boat or PWC trailer looking tires on this trailer the question was really very practical. The fact that some "kayak" trailers aren't meant to be pulled at highway speeds for long periods of time, is exactly why I custom made my kayak trailer out of a 2 place PWC trailer. So now that I've at least attempted to educate you, knowing ahead of time that I've probably failed, the only "silly" question is yours.
@Manic HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF USERS DRIVE IN EXCESS OF 6 HRS TO KAYAK FISH EVERY WEEK...OF EVERY MONTH OF THE YEAR, like most tournament enthusiasts for example. Just because you do not, does not make it so. YOUR specific need of towing a camper and a kayak trailer is the exception -- not the rule. Why be so rude to others asking questions? I'm sure someone has experience with your particular question and need, and if you act reasonable, respectful and nice, I'm sure someone reading this post will be happy to offer you advice and counsel. Happy Holidays!
Technically, you're right Rocky! We need to work on that title. This video was really meant to convey you can order and equip a Malone YOUR WAY, or as your kayak needs and requirements grow, so you have the most affordable solution that perfectly fits YOUR SPECIFIC requirements. And for what we wanted, this was easily the most economical and performance oriented solution -- and it was shipped to us in a couple boxes that we assembled, then we added additional features for specific transportation needs. Stay tuned, we're changing that vid title to reflect that "build and assemble" view. Thanks for your opinion.
Just bought this same trailer to haul my new Hobie PA 14 360 with. I recently had back surgery and this makes it so much easier than loading it into the back of my truck.
