Hello Lori, good question. The Malone LowBed MicroSport Trailer # MAL25FR comes with 78" crossbars, so it can easily accommodate most sizes of fishing kayak. Most fishing kayaks are between like 30"-40" wide. Depending on where you place the bunks, the kayaks could be upwards of 40" wide or even more and still fit on the trailer.
What kind of fishing kayaks do you have? How wide are they? We have one of these kayak trailers that we use here around the shop from time to time, and I have yet to encounter any actual kayak that doesn't fit. You can just slide the bunks farther outboard on the crossbars as needed.

Hey Lori, how did things go fitting your fishing kayaks on the Malone LowBed MicroSport trailer? Did adjusting the bunks give you enough room for both kayaks side by side? Your update could make it easier for the next person working with a similar setup.
