Question:

I want to buy this trailer from a guy for $1500. I need to know what would it take to transport 1-2 Old Town Predator Kayaks. This kayak is just about worthless without a trailer. Thanks

On the Yakima Rack and Roll trailer, # Y08107, you will want to use a compatible kayak carrier unless you do not mind the kayaks sitting directly on the bars.

I would go with the Thule Hull a Port part # TH834 which fits directly to the round crossbars of the trailer. J-style carriers hold the kayaks securely and are easy to load. You would need one of these per kayak.
