Best Kayak Trailer For Carrying Two NuCanoe U10 41" Wide Fishing Kayaks

Question

Question:

I have purchased 2 NuCanoe U10 and I’m interested in buying a trailor to transport these. The length at 10’10” isn’t a problem, but I’m concerned with their width of 41 in. Can you make some suggestions? Thank you for your time in this matter. Jerry Mounts DDS

Hey Jerry, thanks for reaching out. Sure thing! We do have kayak trailer options that will work really well for carrying your two NuCanoe U10s. We have options with extra-long crossbars which will work great for accommodating those 41" wide kayaks. Here are our best options for that:

- Malone LowBed MicroSport Trailer for 2 Heavy Kayaks - 7' Bunks - 800 lbs # MAL25FR

- Malone MicroSport Trailer for 2 Heavy Kayaks - 7' Bunks - 800 lbs # MPG461B2

Both of these have 78" crossbars, so you'll have plenty of room for both kayaks. The bunks make for a solid platform, and they make loading and unloading very easy. Between those two options I'd probably lean towards the LowBed. It has a lower crossbar base, so you don't have to hoist the kayaks up as high when you go to load up. You can even add a winch stand # CE31013G and light-duty winch like part # MT50156 which really helps with loading.

The trailer itself is a lightweight galvanized steel frame and it has leaf spring suspension. It has tires rated for highway speed so longer trips are not a problem.

Where do you most enjoy paddling your U10s? Do you do a lot of fishing?

My son ani just got them. He did the research on the kayaks and different brands. We’ll be using them on a small river for fishing primarily. He’s 31 and 6’3”, I’m 70 and 6’5”. Stability was a big concern especially for me. It seems NuCanoe fit the bill for us. Thank you for your very informative response. Do we put the trailer together ourselves? That won’t be a problem, just wanting to make sure. Again, THANK YOU for your time and response. Jerry MountsDDS

@JerryM Awesome! Yea those fishing kayaks are way more stable than standard kayaks so it should be way easier to fish out of. To answer your question, yes, the trailer does require assembly but it isn't too difficult its just basic tools. If you're somewhat handy it should take a few hours. You'll have to register it with your local DMV too. All that paperwork is included but I believe it ships separately.

By chance would a Malone J-Style Eco-lite trailer be compatible with the NuCanoe 10 ? 2 kayaksI.

@JerryM Yes, the Malone EcoLight Sport Trailer with J-Style Carriers # MAL93FR can work for carrying two NuCanoe U10s too. The only real drawback is it won't be as easy to load and unload the kayaks since you'd have to hoist them up onto the J-carriers instead of just sliding them on from the back. I usually prefer the bunk-style trailers for larger kayaks like that but if that isn't a big deal for you and you're wanting to keep costs down, the J-style carriers can absolutely work for that.

@JesseM. We’ve just placed our order for #MMAL93FR, J-Style Carrier. Where we live, the access to the river is limited. No boat ramps into the water. lol. So lifting them up a few feet with both of us won’t be a big deal. My son could lift it up by himself probably. Your response to our questions were greatly appreciated and informative. Made our decisions easier and let us be comfortable in making them. It has been a pleasure communicating with you. Hope you have a good year in sales and an enjoyable summer! From southern WV, Again thank you for your time and putting up with us! Jerry Mounts DDS Jordon Mounts Virginia Mounts
