Trailer option

Hello Dan,
I picked up a late model used jet ski trailer from Craigslist for $450 and it hauls my PA 14 around nicely. I adjusted the bunks on the trailer a little bit and I'm able to leave the yak stored on it full time with no problem. I store the whole thing outside with a reflective tarp over the top and it does fine.

If you are patient you can probably find a better deal on a trailer than I did.

Good luck

Chris

Sure, I can do that tomorrow.

I didn't really "modify" the trailer. The bunks are secured with large u-bolts which can be loosened and moved around easily.

Those Harbor Freight trailers are less expensive but aren't built as well as a purpose built jet-ski trailer- no where near as durable and will not retain their value as well either.

There are a few guys here in San Diego that buy jet skis and ship them overseas in quantity for resale. They end up with extra trailers that they sell on Craigs.

There is also a bed extender(T-bone) that you could buy at Fastlane. I use it for my PA with my Highlander. It is very easy to use-- put the seats down and slide it in. If it is something your are interested in I will load it up and take a pic for you tonight.

Hey Dan

If you figure out something with a trailer, I have a set of Holly Rollers and Mako saddles (Yakama). I paid $80 on Craiglist used, I'll let you have them for $50. You might not even need saddles.
