Just be sure to walk the free end the other way around above the equator...
Stop at your nearest U-Haul center and ask to see an AO trailer. Rent one, you’ll do fine:

You’ll hang out the back a couple of feet, so tie a pair of your bright red panties on the end of your kayak, as a warning flag. Your kayak will be easy to load, unload, and tie down. Your Jeep MUST have a hard top to rent this (or any other U-haul trailer). Depending on your Jeep’s wiring harness (where the trailer’s wiring plugs in), you may need to purchase a 7round-to-4flat wiring plug adapter (less than $10)
Might weigh a couple pounds, don’t hurt your back.
Thats why you go to the garage with the nice man!
African or European?
OTOH, I can be had for a meal.
I would have been such an easy dog to train...
I think your answer is the best.

I’d eat that...
With well over a hundred posts, appears to be news and activism for some. Slow news/event night.
Here's one from Yakima:
Here's another from Malone. Check out rackwarehouse.
Bungee cord it to the Great White.
Inflatable Duckies would actually fit in her vehicle!
C’mon over. Move kayaks for all the free soup you can eat. Noodle, rice or alphabet?
Winters are cold, but woodstove is warm.
You’ll master backing up in no time. Want to go left? Steer right. And vice versa. With a little forethought, you can avoid most backing situations. Plus, the trailers are so light you can unhitched it and move the kayak / trailer easily.
I am too short. Jeep is too tall.
One possibility might be to purchase a small plastic foldable step. You could store it flat in the vehicle and use it when you need to lift items onto the roof of the Jeep.
You are not talking about the Yellow duckies that go in bathtubs, are you?
You must be talking about something different.
I want something easy to maneuver. Like a kayak.
I had a Wrangler and took my kayak down to La Paz. This is hwo I did it:
1) Put the front rack of a surfrack over the front door, as close to the front windshield as it’ll safely go.
2) Get a T-bar rack that goes in a trailer hitch. It’s a big “L” shaped bar with a “T” on the top. It goes into the hitch (full size, not the small size for bicycles).
3) Strap the kayak upside down between the two. It’s pretty heavy but I did it alone, taking it down at night and during the day to fish.
I bought mine from Thule.

DNA is a settled science. And I have non backing up trailer DNA. I have tried.
I can drive six on the floor.
I can park a MGB in the space between two parked cars. And receive applause.
I can and have driven a pulp truck.
I have commuted with a car with no brakes just a stick.
But I cannot drive backwards with a trailer.
Just not in the picture.
Wow, by the time you got your kayak off, it would be time to put it back on and head home!
