I use a Malone trailer and the bars are not far enough apart for the kayak to really sit perfectly in the cradle - either the front or back does bot not both. But when strapped down it does sit very securely and I feel much more confident driving long distances at high speeds with the cradle set.

The Hobie Cradle set is a good upgrade for my Trailex aluminum trailer. Make sure you order bolts and hardware from Hobie to mount your purchase. Great addition.

These craddles appear to be of good quality, easy to install. No mounting hardware included with the cradels, but the Trailex trailer for AIs and TIs come with mounting hardware for these cradles.

I wish they gave you more in the line of installation instructions, but I understand they can be used in quite a few different applications. They do work great. The company is amazing. I have just purchased my Kayak so I have had quite a few purchase recently and all have been handled just great!

Just what I needed. They appear to be durable. If you want to keep your hobie PA, you need the riht gear.

Not worth the money! I purchased the AI single version. It does not do a very good job of holding the amas in a good position. For the money you're better off buying the wing type.

The cradle makes transporting my Pro Angler so easy and because it is molded to the Pro Angler, I dont have to worry about dents, scratches or anything else if I was to just us the rack bars.

These work great, but really should for the price. However, the instructions dont provide any mounting advice and there is no mounting hardware. The instructions are useless but the saddles work well.

Wow I cannot say enough about this invention. I have a Hobie Pro Angler. When I first bought my PA I had the Yakima Hully Rollers and Saddles - the rollers were too weak and the saddles crushed quickly I almost lost my boat on the road. I then purchased the Hobie Cradle set - these are awesome, keeps my PA perfectly safe. Easy to load and unload and easy to install. Got a Hobie? you need the Cradle set.

By: Finnbear  Date: Oct 12, 2011 

I tried every other possible way to carry my Pro Angler, Hulley rollers and saddles - the saddles crushed and deformed under the weight of the PA, the hulley rollers crapped out too. I tried carpeting too - I finally broke down and ordered the cradle set and this is the best thing since sliced bread, easy to load, carries my boat secure and I have no worries about the boat sliding around. The cradles were easy to install too

Bought the cradle set with the trailex aluminum trailer. Don't know how else you can transport the AI on this trailer without it. Formed well to fit the hulls and seems to provide good support. Carpet wasn't applied well and already came loose on one side but no big deal....

Steve not only help me to make sure I was ordering the correct Hobie Pro Angler Cradles but also made sure, they were in stock and would ship ASAP! I have not had better Customer Service anywhere. These Cradles ROCK! They fit the Pro Angler perfectly and make trailering the Pro Angler to and from the lakes easy.

Q: I have one trailer and two kayaks/boat. I use bunks for my boat and would like the cradle for my PA14. I would like to keep the bunks while using the cradle. What is the distance between each hole that is mounted to the trailer? Depending on that distance, I might pull off keeping the bunks on the days I want to add the cradle for the PA. Thanks.

Q: Can I use the cradle for a Hobie PA 14 on the Malone Microsport XT trailer? Will the front to back spacing be acceptable?
Asked on Aug 17, 2016 by Bradley S
FLAG QUESTION
A: I do not think that this trailer is going to be compatible with the following. I feel that the cross bars are not going to provide the support necessary for the cradles. The other thing that concerns me is the fact that the cross bars are round rather than rectangular tubing which does not allow for much mounting surface for bolts.

Q: I have the two 14ft Hobie Pro Angler and I'm looking in getting the double trailer ($1499.00) one. Do I need the cradle set to make them sit properly on the trailer? Also do I need to get a pair or can you get them for a double trailer? Thanks
Asked on Jan 28, 2016 by Paul G
FLAG QUESTION
A: It is not necessary to have a cradle for your kayaks, but I would highly recommend it. The cradles will give your kayaks great stability and over time having the cradle will be well worth it.

Q: I have a Hobie Mirage. Will this cradle set work with that kayak?
Asked on May 04, 2015 by Duard W

FLAG ANSWER
Q: For a PA 14, how far apart should the cradles be set.
Asked on Feb 04, 2015 by James R
FLAG QUESTION
A: If you're putting this on a roof rack, you can use a U-bolt to connect them to the crossbar. So you place it over the crossbars themselves. If you're using a trailer, use bolts to place them over the axle and the main cross bar.
