it works with my 2015 outback, you just need to put the saw horses a little closer to the ends, upside down of course. I haven't noticed any deformations of any kind since it's upside down.

Hmm, wouldn't I need two of them, making it more expensive than the stand I am interested in.

Haha okay, i'll probably give the stand a shot until I build something slightly better. Thanks.

Keep the halibut tips coming tho!!! 30 feet of water you say?!

Picked up that exact harbor freight stand about an hour ago. Thought the package felt kind of light in the store, even for something rated up to #200. But at $20 it was worth a shot anyway.

Had the outback wobbling back and forth on it for five seconds and I told myself there was no way I was leaving the Hobie on that thing. Would've cried if I came back later to find it smashed in a bunch of pieces. That thing's got way too much mojo, I gotta make sure I carry that on somehow. So yeah I quickly put the yak back on the floor.

I think I'll sniff around Home Depot and see what I can throw together.

Just look for an old jet ski stand on CL. Prob get one for about $100-$125. Caster for easy transport too. Perfect

Hmm, just ran through some of those ads on CL. That does seem like it could really work and be pretty convenient. Thanks.

I bought 2 Coleman Rambler II Stools. About $10 each. Supports up to 225 lbs (per stool). I place my Outback 2016's ends on each stool and it sits flat, super stable. I like that it's foldable so it molds nicely with the shape of the hull. It's light and small too, so it's easy to carry if needed. Looked everywhere, Dicks, Wal-Mart, but could not find any locally.

One of the best purchases for my yak so far.

You're RIGHT! I think I got the pair during one of them sidewalk sales they frequently have. might've been $7 or $8 each. I do like that coleman option though.. it looks perfect and I won't have to mess with inverting my yak.

I have two storage racks I use...
One has PVC pipes for the upright PA storage and the other is just 2"x4"s for the upside-down storage (as approved by Hobie) of the Island Yaks.
