Will Two 30 Inch Wide Kayaks Fit on Lower Deck of Yakima EasyRider Trailer
Question:
I don't believe your two 30 inch wide kayaks will fit on the bottom deck of the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer # Y08129 . I confirmed through my contact at Yakima that the width of the bottom deck is 54 inches inside to inside of the 2 inch diameter tubing that make up the frame. Because the bottom deck has a height of 21 inches, you would not be able to fit your 30 inch wide kayaks on their side, as you mentioned. You could, however, fit one on the bottom and a second or third using a J-Style carrier like # Y04073 on the upper crossbars, which have a capacity of 350 lbs.
