Kayaks

[mockturtle]

I have an Eddyline Merlin 13.5' touring kayak which I haul on my Honda CR-V which I sometimes tow with my motor home. <br>&nbsp;<br>

<br><br>Whitewater kayaking is more dangerous and I have never done it but I have kayaked many miles of flat water by myself without incident.&nbsp; I like to camp out of my kayak in places only accessible by water. <br><br>

<p style="margin: 0px;">I have 2 kayaks...an 11 footer and a 13 footer.&nbsp; I now have a dog and was wondering if anyone has ever towed a 2nd kayak behind them?&nbsp; I noticed one in a small lake the other day and it gave me an idea of how to haul my pooch with me.&nbsp; Anyone ever tried to pull off something like this?</p><p style="margin: 0px;">Rae</p>

The only experience I've had towing with my kayak was towing a lost canoe back to its owner.&nbsp; Towing was fine, steering was tricky.&nbsp; Wind would make it risky.&nbsp; Make sure your dog has a PFD. <br>

I tried it for a short ways when my wife got tuckered out. We were just off shore in the atlantic ( off the coast of Maine) and there were gentle swells and waves. IF we had a proper rope to take up the slack in-between strokes, it may not have been as jerky or difficult. Since it is unlikely that your dog is the size of my wife, ( or at least won't be crying "carry me!") it might be easier for you than is was for me. Then again, Trish wasn't jumping around barking, Soooo, trade offs?

<p style="margin: 0px;">Thanks for the info guys.&nbsp; A PFD is a must for my dog.&nbsp; I'm not sure if she can even swim.&nbsp; She'll wade up to her knees...and she's not that tall!&nbsp; </p><p style="margin: 0px;">Rae</p>
