Just bought two new Yaks from Mariner Sails. Mine is a Ride 135. Wife's is a Tarpon 100.
First launch and reload: Sat @ Lake Texoma Second launch& reload: Today @ White Rock Lake
The little lady (5'0", 115#) has a hard time lifting to top of my 2004 Toyota Sequoia. Took 40 mins to load and strap down when leaving.
Lol!
Looking for trailer to ease the job.
Thanks

Congrats on the new yaks! Sounds like you picked two good ones!
I demo'd the Tarpon 100 back in April at the Grapevine GTG, a day with near gale force winds, and I was amazed at how well that little boat handled both the wind and the waves. I paddled a lot of boats that day, all longer than the 100, but none tracked or handled the wind as well. Amazing.
WS knows how to build a yak. Between the wife and myself, we have three of 'em ... Tarpon 120, and two Pungos (120 and 100), and we love them!
This might be the weirdest, most pointless post ever. I am not against golf, since I cannot but suspect it keeps armies of the unworthy from discovering fishing
