How much you want to spend?
For $200 to $300 you can buy, assemble, and convert your own Harbor Freight utility to use with kayaks.



For $1000 to $2000 you can buy a fancy one with much softer suspension – made for fancy boats I guess.

trailer for 16.5’ kayak
I see people recommending these 4x8 foot deck folding trailers from various sources. My question is how do they fair with a longer boat such as my 16.5 foot Tsunami? It seems the trailers are only about 11 feet long overall and keeping the boat back a bit on a trailer so it didn’t hit the car when turning would leave me about a 6+ foot overhang. I am not sure this is even legal. What is the solution for someone with a longer boat wanting to buy a cheap trailer for hauling 2 kayaks?
