Question:

Have a 14 boat trailer. Are there racks that can be installed for 2 kayaks with the ability to easily remove to still use the boat trailer for sunfish?

Expert Reply:

It really just depends on what boat trailer you have. A lot of standard boat trailers use bunk boards so you can potentially install a second bunk kit like part # MPG561 and try to configure everything so you're just rotating the bunks to fit with 2 kayaks or your single boat.

If you have a Malone trailer though you might be able to mount a set of the Malone FoldAway-J Kayak Roof Rack # MAL98FR on either end of the crossbars. This way you'll use the bunks for your boat with these folded down, but then you can rotate them up to the carry position for your kayaks.
