My Gal, and Myself enjoy Kayaking.  Fitting two into the bed of a truck is somewhat awkward - so I decided to build a Yak trailer -

found a Jon Boat trailer for a couple bucks - stripped all the deck hardware, and wiring:

worked on my "idea" ..... it did not make me happy Huh , scratched that idea (blue tubes on the ground) ...... searched the Net for other options .... few coolies later

not rocket science ...... but "wal'a"

not quite done.  Will be mounting a box on the main frame, for life preservers & straps.
