Recommended Boat Trailer for Blue Sky Tricat by Jackson Kayak

Updated 10/12/2020 | Published 10/08/2020

Question:

What trailer brand/type do you suggest for transporting the Blue Sky Tricat by Jackson Kayak? I was hoping to be able to use the Yakima Easy Rider trailer with 80inch Crossbars on top. Do you forsee any objections to doing that? I prefer this Yakima trailer over a standard boat trailer because of it being aluminum, having a folding tongue and its ability to mount my Yakima SkyRise Roof Top Tent. I realize it may be a bit of a stretch but, seems possible and I appreciate your insight.

The Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer part # Y08129 will be an excellent option for a Blue Sky Tricat by Jackson Kayak. The 240 lb weight is under the 350 lb weight capacity for the upper deck, the 72" width is less than the 78" crossbars which come with, and the 13'4" long length is under the max boat length for the trailer which is 19'.

I also really like the Yakima trailers because of the coil over suspension which produces a very smooth ride.
