I recently bought a SUV and want to haul my kayak on a trailer. Where are some good places to search? Will all sizes fit or do they go by certain types? Thanks TFF!!

You can buy one ready to go. Or modify a utility trailer from somewhere like Harbor Freight, or modify a PWC trailer. Lots of creative folks out there have modified all sorts of trailers.

River,
I have a PA 12 and it is a load so I am also looking. I may purchase a used jet ski trailer tomorrow. The bunks are adjustable and will need to take the winch off. Probably will find a way to put pvc stringer on instead of the bunks.
Guy posted one for 75 on cl and said it needed some work. I texted him and ask what work, and he said tires lights and wiring and carpet on bunkers. I told him I would like to see it today and he never got back to me. Bummer. For a couple hundred more could be made into good yak trailer.

I picked up a 17' boat trailer on Cl for $120.

Yeah I was a steal. Granted all I kept from it were the axle, frame, and springs; everything else was replaced and I ended up with one heck of a trailer.
