First off, don't leave the adapter...it'll get stolen. Utility trailer is great. You can either build a box or boxes for your rods and gear and slide yak on top...lockable boxes or get one of those truck bed boxes with drawer system instead of building. That's what I'm going to do with mine. Options and versatility. Great choice.
Nice !! Up front , in front of the bed on top of the V part of the hitch I added a locking storage box That makes a great place to store straps and other things I need Just make sure the box can not be hit by you truck as you turn
I bought a homemade landscape trailer for just this reason. I have two Nucanoe kayaks I want to be able to move. I already had a converted jet-ski trailer, but that can only take one at a time. I am trying to come up with a fixture to load and unload them easier, and then quickly convert to a utility trailer if needed.
I might have a connection on a 5x14 trailer that might work for your situation if you’re looking in the future. It’s my old trailer but gave it to my cousin many years ago.
Good job man. I like your new trailer. There’s so much you can do with it. Although, I’d love a dedicated kayak trailer but after spending so much recently on a motor and batteries, it’ll be a while. I repurposed my 6x10 utility trailer I bought in 2010. I cut the 4 ft gate in half and bolted a piece of angle to each side of the gate to make it 12 ft flat. Then, used 4” pvc for bunks and bolted them down on the floor. Hauls my Titan X 12.5 great. 👍
I have a 6x8 trailer that I wasn't using and I drive a chevy cruze. Hooked up the cruze with hitch, new lights on the 300lb trailer. So much easier, Did way more trips this year. 👍👍
I think that i would pull that 7 pin adapter out of the suburban when not in use in order to keep dust , dirt and crap out of it . Keep the lid closed on the suburban plug . Nice trailer .
I took a harbor freight trailer and made it into a kayak trailer. Fun project for me and the kiddo to do in our spare time. I have a pic of it here on my RUclips.

Sweet Trailer and a Good Price. Sometimes you have to spend. Time saved long term is money earned.

Good call!
Value for a dollar that's what you always look for a John. Seems to me you made a good purchaser.
One thing for sure you can't beat a new trailer
Nice trailer! Good purchase 👍

Nice! I bought the same trailer. A short ladder rack makes it easy for me to carry 4 kayaks.
Love the dovetail with the shorter gate. Also, the crossbars are easily removed from my ladder rack for hauling mowers and 4-wheelers

You will be glad later you got a dovetail because it’s so much easier loading mower or anything else
I’m already liking it after one trip
Congrats
upgrade the trailer lights to marine waterproof for sure.
