where would I get a yaktrailer for the river? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Going from Walter's Camp to Lake Martinez on 5/15-18. Float, fish, and camp's the whole agenda. Martinez outfitters offer a shuttle up river, but they charge an arm and a leg. We could us a trailer for 6-10 yaks. Anyone willing to loan/rent us a trailer for a week? Anyone know of where we could find one to rent in SD county? We're in Escondido. Picking it up at the river would actually work, too. Anywhere on the Yuma to Blythe strip would be good.
Thanks

You can also go to harbor freight and get one for about $250 i think and just put some plywood on.

People do that for their motorcycles.

I actually have one of those Harbor freight trailers I bought a few years ago. It's 4x8' and folds so it stands on casters. I made it a stakebed setup and it should be able to to haul a few yaks if they're tied down, has like a 900 pound capacity. I've hardly ever used it and would be willing to part with it cheap, say $150.
