How to carry the Hobie Pro Angler by yourself

[lowprofile]

I side loaded my PA on top of my FJ once... Put it over my head like a snatch and slid it on.... Only did that once.

That's a tough carry right there, and small gusts of wind would make it even tougher. If I had to carry something that big and heavy, I'd probably try standing it up and rigging it to carry on my back, sort of like we do for carrying large heavy doors up stairs. It might be too top heavy when carried that way though.

Makes as much sense as this picture.

X2 ...Both pictures are a roll reversal. Why is the object that should be a mode of transportation be the one being carried. Remember it's hard to go Kayak fishing if your laid up with a hurt back muscle.

Yup. Try that after the end of a long paddle on an even moderately breezy day and I guarantee you'll rethink your decision.

Plus you're about 8 feet tall right? And 250lbs of man. lol

I'm 31 going to be 32 in july. I got a set of wheel but I'm just sharing a way to carry the PA if you have tight spots you need to lift your kayak. Heavy lifting but it's not that bad after learning a few of these tips.

You gotta be Rambo during the 80's (Not 2012) to lift a PA like that.... oh.

Did you guys know that you CAN actually perform some surgery at home? All you need is a sharp clean knife, bandages and some vodka to clean the incision site!


Just because it can be done does not mean you should do it.









I think I got a hernia just thinking about that PA.

I like that idea...

You can lift heavy objects if you do it right. But you can also get hurt. Wheels dont go down rocky cliffs.
