Slumdog Kayak Trailer

Post by Littoral »

Didn't fish :evil: but I did finish my trailer this weekend.
It was assembled entirely from landfill parts. The only new parts were
a set of lights and a hitch receiver/ball because mine was the wrong size.
About $50.00 in it total.

Also built two bolt-on racks to carry four kayaks.

The tie ends are vintage and the weld job I’ll call folk art. :o

This is the rig that the “new” one replaced. Hate to see it go. WWII Jeep.

Actually listening to what other people say is worth the effort.

Ghetto fabulous, but functional. Maybe you can win another kayak this month to tow around.

NIce. Factor in last year's $50 entry fee and the whole rig is up to triple figures. 8)
I should be so ghetto with my tackle. My new St Croix Avid Inshore rod just bit me good.
