Specs:
If you are looking for an easy way to haul your expensive gear, slap this premium Yakima sport trailer on your hitch and you're ready to Rack and Roll.
This high-performance, lightweight Rack and Roll trailer comes with a pair of adjustable, 78" Yakima crossbars for mounting boats, bikes and cargo boxes for covered storage - whatever you need. The round crossbars slide along tracks to adjust to your load, and they accept all Yakima roof-rack accessories - it's like having a tow-behind roof rack with all the capability and versatility of a standard Yakima rack. The difference here is that, with the trailer's conveniently low loading height, you don't have to lift your gear over your head to store it.
Rack and Roll holds up to 250 lbs and coddles your gear with fully independent, adjustable shock absorbers. The suspension has 4 inches of wheel travel for exceptional highway performance, cushioning your gear and keeping the trailer from going "airborne" over rough terrain.
The versatile trailer is easy to store when not in use, with a variety of options for keeping it tucked away in your garage. The tongue and wheels remove easily with stainless steel pins to make the trailer more compact. The trailer can be stored upright or hung on the garage wall by the crossbars. The rear section of the frame features two integrated rollers to make moving the trailer laterally effortless.
A standard, 4-way flat, black rubber connector is included for connecting your lights to the towing vehicle. The trailer connector has three male pins and one female pin. The vehicle's flat-4 connector should have one male pin (exposed ground) and three female connections (live circuits for stop, turn and running lights).
The trailer frame includes a locking lever with a Same Key System Core that locks your hitch tongue to the trailer frame. SKS Cores can be swapped out to make all your Yakima locks keyed alike.
An integrated carrying handle is mounted near the coupler to make it easier to place the trailer on the hitch ball. The handle also turns your trailer into a handcart that is easy to maneuver while it's unhitched from your vehicle.
The trailer can carry one boat up to 17' long or two 16'-long boats. Add the Rack and Roll Tongue Extension Kit (Y08109) - sold separately - to increase the capacity to one 22'-long boat or two 21'-long boats.
You can also store the trailer without removing the tongue and wheels by adding the Rack and Roll Kickstand (Y08115) - sold separately.
The trailer is constructed from anodized aluminum and features custom-cast, polished aluminum alloy wheels.
The trailer works with Class I, II and III hitches with a 2" ball installed. The ball should be mounted 22" from the ground for optimum performance. To ensure the best fit, use a ball mount with the proper drop or rise to modify the height of your receiver.
Most states require that you register your Rack and Roll trailer. All paperwork necessary for registering your trailer is included. Take the documents to your Department of Motor Vehicles and you will be issued a license plate.

What a cool trailer! I wasn't really expecting much when I first tried this trailer out. I was expecting such a light weight trailer to be bouncing and swinging all over the place... boy was I wrong. I took this guy out for 2 hour drive with two kayaks from St. Louis down to Lake Kinkaid on major highway, two lane country highway and country lanes. The Yakima handled them all like a champ. I also really liked using the trailer vs. lifting boats and hauling on top of a vehicle. I didn't notice any excess drag while driving or getting blown around by cross winds like you get with boats on top. The end of the day was great too, just to back up to the water and quickly slide the boats on to the trailer rather than using tired muscles to lift overhead. I didn't back the trailer into the water like a powerboat trailer... not sure if that would be ok for the lights or not? Benefits: 1. Long neck made for easy pulling, backing and easily fit my 14' kayak. 2. Independent suspension worked wonders for tracking straight and not swaying. 3. Lights are big and bright for night pulling such a small trailer (compared to power boat trailers). 4. Plenty of space to fit two kayaks flat. We could have easily fit two mountain bikes on there too if we wanted. 5. Handle at hitch makes for easy, one handed moving of the trailer even when loaded with the boats. 6. Hitch has a really smooth action and hooks up easily without fussing. I'm hoping that it keeps this up as use continues. Negatives: 1. Definitely invest in some kind of boat cradling system. I had my kayaks directly on the cross bars which never works out well. 2. The trailer did dissapear behind my Tacoma when no boats were on it. Just had to be a bit more careful when backing. 3. Be prepared to answer "What is that thing?" at the boat launch.50106

Fits two tandem kayaks and a Yakima cargo carrier - about 225 lbs of gear. Tracks well at highway speeds. No swaying at all. No squeeking and clanking that you typically hear with a utility trailer. Easy to assemble and store. Quite a nice trailer.19545
