how about hauling kayaks?

They will carry up to 160 lbs and most kayak attachments will adapt to square rails

Depends on how secure you want it. I always do. Many kayaks get torn off racks on the freeway.

Should be able to handle a 16 ft kayak. You push the kayak/canoe like a wheel barrow.

You would need two of them for two kayaks. Make sure you have the long roof rack bars. If you can raise your hands and reach a foot over your roof you will be fine. Just make sure you secure them from the front and rear after they are on the rack.

You would have to rigid some sort of support on the beams to use this, but the frame is certainly sturdy enough to handle 2 kayaks.

As you suggest, I use them to hold the hull right side up, and they work well. I would not have a lot of confidence holding a kayak sideways on these racks.

I don't see why not.. but don't know why you would want to... it would take up a lot more room to store,, and it only takes a few minutes to inflate it with the manual pump..so that is the beauty of this kayak... it doesn't require a lot of storage space or transport space..

It will depend on the length of your canoe or Kayak and height of the your vehicle. I have a 4x8 trailer, pulled by a truck with a cap and haul 13 foot kayaks. It gives me about a foot and a half clearance. With a 4 x 6 trailer and the same vehicle, 12 foot boats may be the max.

I don't know why you would want to do this. If whatever you are lifting is equally balanced on both ends, it should work. Might consider installing something on the kayak to hook the lifting bands farther toward the ends of the kayak so that most of the weight of the kayak is between the two lifting bands.

As with the two previous answers, you strap the cart to the kayak and pull with the lanyard handle that, hopefully, came attached to your kayak

Yeah sure, as long as you have a handle in the front and back of your kayak ( to hook the straps to ).

Yes, but you would need to buy a cradle or saddle for you canoe. There are slots or "T track" on top of the rack that let you add accessories for doing that.

You can but it takes a little work making the kayak racks fit because bars are a little small for most mounting brackets but it works

My wife put 2 picnic table kits from Home Depot in a safari basket mounted on top of these. I think they should support your kayak!

Yes. No problem, as long as the kayak is inflated enough so that the ends don't droop to the ground.

I'm not sure about the dimensions of your kayaks, but the ones I've seen could be laid on their sides and strapped down to the extensions. So from my limited point of view, I would say yes.

It's easy...just remember the amour of weight you are moving. You could have a hold of 300 pounds fully loaded, which could get away from you on an incline or make it difficult to move over ruts, large rocks, or holes. With 80 lbs of kayak and gear, I've never had difficulty wheeling the trailer around the driveway, launch ramp, or trail.
