Re: [Paddlewise] kayak trailer

If you get some pictures together, I'd be interested in seeing them too.
I'm wondering how custom trailer builders' rates compare with what's
available retail.  I'm also interested in the basic kit models from Harbor
Freight, etc., which I could adapt for kayak use.  They seem suitable,
except that the tongue isn't long enough for 17' kayaks.

Thanks.
