Reese Conduit Carrier Kit - $55.00
LINK

6" Sch 40 PVC - Lowes - $23.00

2 Ea. Cans of as seen on TV Flex Seal $13.50 Each

Cut the PVC pipe down to around 8'-6" if I remember right, cleaned it good and sprayed it with flex seal (for appearance only). I wanted the tubes to be black to match the trailer, seemed like most of the how to videos online used flex seal. Maybe I could have saved some money by just using spray paint. I attached the end caps using rivets instead of the screws that came with the kit for a little extra theft protection. I also cut some 1" thick foam and put inside the tube at the end to hopefully help protect rod tips when braking. Also used marine silicon when installing the end caps to seal it better.

FYI, there's a guy on the used Kayak FB page selling a WS Radar with Pedals for $1500. That's a pretty good deal.

I’m currently in negotiations on a slayer for around that price. If it falls through I may have to look.

You’d never hear the end of it if you bought a Hobie

I’ve been. It’s alright if you’re one of the first ones there, which means getting in line around 6ish.

I usually go though I've never had anything in particular in mind to buy, I always end up buying something. Pack & Paddle usually always has some great deals on clothes, shoes, jackets, stuff like that, I bought my Columbia Drainmakers there a couple years ago for around $50 I believe, I might try to find a good rain jacket this year. There's the occasional good find for used gear, reels, kayaks, etc too.
