Re: YAK TRAILERS
Hi Mozza, being that a yak doesn't weigh much, does the trailer bounce around much? Our roads are fairly rough.

Re: YAK TRAILERS
No bounce,pulls really nice.well balanced.good to back into tight areas.no problems.The steel used in trailer is heavy guage square tube sections.15 inch wheels is better for soaking up the bumps better than 10/12 inch boat wheels,also if i get a flat i can use the spare of my car.and if it does a bearing i can get one anywhere, being ford bearings. i have kept the floor open,if you launch at boat ramp, you dont want a floor or storage boxes working against you when you are trying to leave the ramp.
the kingfisher is no lightweight,its 4.1m of thick plastic,and packed with gear,battery,anchor,cart,and gear. it soon adds up to a fair wieght.
