What Sport Trailer do You Recommend for Transporting My Adirondack Guide Boat?

I have a great solution for you to transport your Adirondack-style guide boat. While we do carry light-duty carriers that are designed to carry kayaks and canoes with built-in carriers like the Malone EcoLight Sport Trailer with V-Style Carriers for 2 Kayaks - 400 lbs # MAL43FR, they most likely will not fit the length of your Adirondack boat (the maximum boat length for the EcoLight is 14 feet). However, without knowing your exact length of your boat, I cannot confirm for sure.

With the length limitation, the best route forward is the Malone MicroSport Trailer - 78" Crossbars - 800 lbs # MPG460G along with the Malone BigFoot Pro Canoe Carrier with Tie-Downs - Gunwale Brackets # MPG112MD. Since the maximum boat length of the MicroSport trailer is 20 feet, you will have a considerable amount of room for mounting your guide boat. Also, as far as the BigFoot, you will be able to adjust the brackets to fit the width of your boat. It also comes with 2 load straps with cam buckles and two bow/stern ties.

With the trailer and the BigFoot, you will need a ball mount with a compatible 2-inch ball like the Curt Towing Starter Kit for 2" Hitches - 2" Ball - 3/4" Rise, 2" Drop # C45534. This kit also comes with a locking hitch pin.

You will also need a wiring harness to work the tail lights of the trailer as well as a compatible hitch receiver. In order to get you the correct harness and hitch you need, feel free to respond to this answer with the year/make/model of vehicle you own.
