Hey Tanya, thanks for reaching out! To tow your trailer you'll need a ball mount with a 2" rise and for that I recommend going with the etrailer Ball Mount Kit #e38NR. This gives you a 2-3/4" rise but that will still work for your…

Hi there Bob; you can definitely back into the water to launch your dinghy using the CE Smith Multi Sport Plus Boat and Kayak Trailer #CE48870. The hubs have a dust cap but aren't sealed so water can still get in them. To ensure no water gets in,…

The retractable tongue kit part #MPG494 that you referenced works perfectly fine with the Malone Microsport Lowbed part #MAL25FR that you also referenced.

The CE Smith Multi Sport Plus Boat and Kayak Trailer w/ Bunks #CE48870 that you referenced was designed to be used with boats that are up to 14 feet in length like what you have now. I attached a picture that shows the range of where the winch…

Yes, the 66 inch wide Yakima Rack and Roll Trailer #Y08106 can absolutely carry four kayaks. In fact, if you use cradles - which carries the kayaks on their sides - it can hold up to five kayaks. The Rack and Roll is the best solution because it…

When you store the Yakima Rack and Roll Trailer #Y08106 the trailer will be approximately 6' long. The tongue would be need to be removed when stored so the extension won't add anything to the store height since it'd get removed anyway.…

Hey James, That's a good question, but as long as you torque everything down correctly (the install manual will call out specific torque ratings), using Loctite or another thread locker really isn't necessary. I actually don't recommend…

The Malone LowBed MicroSport Trailer #MAL25FR and Malone MicroSport Trailer #MPG461B2 are very similar as they are both built on the same platform. This allows them to both carry the same weight and size kayaks. The #MPG461B2 has a 30" height to…

Hey Chuck, Malone has a spare tire and mount for the Malone EcoLight Sport Trailer for a Heavy Kayak #MAL73FR with part #MAL33FR. It's just a simple U-bolt that you'll use to clamp the wheel to the frame of the trailer, just like the picture…

The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…
