Question:
Can I add J-Hook / j-bar style kayak racks to get more capacity?
asked by: Carlos R
Expert Reply:
Yes, you can definitely add carriers to the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer # Y08129 to safely increase the amount of boats you are carrying, as long as you don't exceed the weight ratings of the trailer.
I recommend using a dual J-Style carrier like the Thule Compass Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs # TH890000 so you minimize the amount of space needed for each carrier, plus if you end up taking fewer kayaks this doubles as a saddle carrier for easier loading of a single kayak.
