One of the first questions that comes up when speaking with new yakkers is how do I lug this thing around on my own. Get creative! But seriously...lots of great carriers out there make sliding the boat on and off your car pretty easy. You just need a little leverage and a plan. I struggled with finding the easiest, fastest way to load my boat until my daughter said, "why don't you just shove it in the back window". Wow...it worked. It takes me minutes to throw my boat in the back and even less to off load at any friendly dock or beach. For longer trips I use car top glides. It take a few minutes longer and I have to strap it down...but even that take just moments. I even have my own step stool.
I also have a J rack for those days I need to carry more Yaks. I can comfortably fit three boats and three yakkers in the Yak Mobile for those fun runs to Tahoe and beyond
I have seen all kinds of methods for getting your yak to the water. My favorite Yak Carrier of all time is featured in the photo below. I need one of these!
Thanks MJ!
