Default vehicle kayak racks

Goin to Tampa and Boca Grande for some tarpon fishing this summer...I'm takin the truck but TEAMR&R is goin with me so room on the back is very limited with 2 yaks and a dozen rods,reels,paddles and other various odds and ends.

I'm wondering how much a cheap rack will cost..thanks

it's crossed my mind but i'm talkin cheap as in 225 or less...i don't think a trailer will go for that and if something goes wrong with the weels,axels,or any other of the many parts i'm screwed 8 hours from home..

Attach some flags or something to the yaks.. That way you make sure there still attachedto the trailer as your going down the HWY...They might be alittle hard to see with the trailer so low..lol..

no problem I was too lazy to link it here ya go http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=42708

and +1 on the flags.I carry long pieces of metal on my trailer and I put flags on there not only to warn tailgaters, but also so I can see it's still there and hasnt fallen off in the street
