Ce que couvre cette vidéo
Kent Blair prepares a 1965 Sunfish and a 2013 Pelican icon 10-foot kayak for beach transport using a Malone Microsport trailer equipped with low bed racks. He secures the Sunfish with a bowline tie-down, noting that the boat’s bow handle features a custom stainless steel plate upgrade to prevent failure under load. For beach transit, he uses a Dynamic dolly that disassembles into five pieces. He maintains the trailer’s 12-inch tires at 20 PSI, noting that lower pressure provides a smoother ride for the 200-pound total load compared to the trailer's maximum capacity. His roadside kit includes a quick jack for axle access, a four-way lug wrench, an electrical repair kit with PB Blaster, and a cordless DeWalt portable pump for tire inflation.1:08 He recommends adjusting tire pressure based on load weight and road conditions, noting that light loads on stiff springs can cause excessive trailer bouncing.
