Lance,
This link will show their line up of trailers. The one I use is the one with the trees in thebackground (UCKT 6). The inverted V, the towers being connected to each other at the top, and the tie from the top of the rack to the tongue add a lot to this trailer. I noticed on their new trailer they brought tongue support forward and it appears they went with a wider axel which I think was the biggest problems with my old one. It does look a little short for seakayaks however but it is less of a beast than the trailer I have. I think it is hard to beat for the price. I will try to find a picture of it loaded tonight. I put 2 kayaks J rack style on each arm. I do not use J racks but I do hang boat throw pads from each arm between the boats and use NRS issue foam rack pads under the boats.
