Help!

Wait a bit and settle for 12' or 14'. It will cover diff. Types of water and you would not think of trading it after a few outings. Goodluck

The Moken 12.5 weighs 72lbs. I can't imagine having to lift a 72lb kayak onto my car. Is this reasonable. Again I'm 5'10 n 165lb. What do you guys think?

This is how I do it https://youtu.be/6wnzk1VOJa0 I'm 5'7 and 140 lbs.

Nice, how much does your kayak weigh? Honestly my car is pretty beat up on the outside so I wouldn't really be worried about scratching up the paint. I could throw a towel over the trunk n slide it right up that.

It's around 60 lbs but I'm sure I can load heavier kayak easily

See all that stress and worry for nothing. You will find a way and figure it out as you go along.

True so you're off the hook! Thanks

Buying your first kayak is intimidating, I still remember it from couple year ago. Once you get the hang of it, you realize all that worries was for nothing.

You're probably right. I can't wait til it arrives. Still have to get a rack for my car. Can anybody suggest a decent but reasonably priced one for a naked roof.

I used the Yakima Q tower and they work great. I got them on Craig list for about $200

I missed this thread earlier....

Did you get the Moken?

[jetblackink]
