WTT my X-factor for something lighter - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Maybe you should stop lifting all those Threshers!

You ever thought about getting a Thule Hullavator to assist in the lifting part? I used to own an X-Factor also and although it is heavy, when it comes down to lifting a yak I don't think 10lbs or so will make much of a difference on your back.

I thought about one of those, but I have a truck. And it's not impossible to load up myself, it just sux, LOL. It's the carrying it that is too hard. I think I might just have to make a set of wheels with 15" rims, then I can go up or down stairs all I want, LOL.
