It seems to me that a yak on a trailer would be
vulnerable to theft.  Its probably more vulnerable
here then any other place.

It also seems to me that a yak trailer would be easily
stolen while the yak is on the water.  A simple
padlock can be overcome with a pair of bolt cutters.
Such a light little trailer could easily be hand-towed
to a hitch on the thief's vehicle.  Bye Bye trailer!
The deed could be done in minutes.

Theft prevention thoughts anyone?
