Lesson Learned

[Ddwineguy]

Last week I was very excited to get my brand new hobie PA 12. I had no problem using my rhino t loader and securing it on my van. Ha! I thought to myself, all you haters that said this boat was to heavy to car top, take that!

I was also able to take it off no problem.
Next day I tried to load it and go fishing. All was well to my knee buckled and the boat slipped off the rack and hit my liftgate. How much damage can a kayak do? Well take a look.

That, my friends is $2000 worth of kayak induced dents. $500 after my deductible but still hurts. Not willing to give up I sold the t loader, saddles and roof rack for the same price as this

Now I think I am ready to fish. Hope to see you all out there soon!
