Question:

I have a Malone microsport trailer that is currently set up with cradles for two light kayaks. I acquired a Bote Rover that is 14 ft long and that mounts an outboard and various accessories to bring the total weight to about 250-300 lbs. Will the Malone bunk kit work well for this SUP/microskiff for both transport and launching at a ramp?

Expert Reply:

To convert your Malone MicroSport Trailer # MPG461GU to carry your Bote Rover SUP/Micro skiff you will need a couple parts to use it with launching at the boat ramp. First you will need the Malone MicroSport to LowBed Trailer Conversion Support Tubes # MAL33TR so you will be able to lower the height of the Bunk Kit # MPG561. This will allow you to mount the bunks as low on the trailer as possible so you will be able to more easily launch the Rover. The bunk kit is rated for up to 500lbs so it will not be an issue with the weight of your Rover.
