Unfortunately your sig is so long it cut off the kayak brand, just says 385 fast....then is cut off. What type is it? Thanks

Taking a Boat

Here's the Sundolphin on Kennbunk pond, Maine. We did have some issues with water getting in between the two hulls, I sealed around the rub rails and motor mount and have reduced that a lot. Also, it is pretty heavy to slide onto the roof, but I can slide it up the rear of the truck by myself. I use foam pipe insulation on the top rails to protect the roof of the truck.

Once on the water, it's a great, comfortable fishing boat. My 14 year old picked it out and bought it with his friend. Click image for larger version

We carry solid kayaks - two 14 footers - just about everywhere we go. Both toads are rigged with kayak carriers so we can park at both ends of a "Point A to Point B" trip. \ken

We carry (2) 13.5' Ocean Kayak (sit on tops) on our 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited 4 door. It works well and pulls well. They are a bit heavy at 60 LBS lifting. I have a full bumper mounted roof rack that will carry 500+ lbs. Its a bit of a lift to get them up but one can do it without much trouble. We use sit on tops because we are getting older and it is hard to get in and out of those you crawl into. Also, the sit on top units are very stable and we use ours for fishing. I can actually stand up if needed.

We travel with 3 boats, two kayaks on racks on toad, and 8 foot zodiac with 2 hp Honda outboard in trunk. Ready for anything.

Inflatable does double duty as dinghy on other boat.
