What else but Hobie?

Ask "OlySpec" but with this little guy you can get a Pro Angler 14' on a jeep Cherokee with out much hassle. It's a life and back saver!!!

Two hours peddling a Hobie and you will definitely feel a nice burn in the legs!!! Burning calories while fishing is a win win!!

The mid boat handles are also designed better for hoisting the yak up high.

The side handles on the 2012 models are just plain awesome.

Yep, all cushy.

I hate to admit it, but my OK T13 was about as much as I could reasonably horse around, and that was before the lumbar fusion surgery. So that little Yakima thingy looks mighty sweet. But I have  a Nissan Frontier crew cab. Thinking about having a lumber-type rack made for it, with rollers for the yak (s).

Anyone use of of those native water craft anglers?

Rev: Every time I look closely at their ships, I see issues, not just with the big old Propel unit jutting up to grab fishing and fly lines, but that nearly worthless rear deck -- at least the one on the Mariner ...

$54.99. It is reversible so it can be used to elevate the rack above an SUV/van Add some used Yakima Hulli-rollers from re-rack for another $20 and you are set.  I plan on getting one for my minivan to extend the distance between where my 18 1/2 foot canoe is strapped down on top the van.  I figure it will lessen the wind torque on my roof rack.  Right now the cross bars can only be spread about 4 feet max.

Craig, I had forgotten about those racks. Thanks for posting. Cogitating here ...

Actually, I am old enough to call it "codgertating."

I bought one last weekend.  Works great, but the tubing is not a tight fit.  I drilled a few extra holes to customize it a little more to my liking.
