Mounted thru the top of the fender, drilled a hole in the top of the fender and used nylok nuts on either side of the fender,, the guy that used the reflectors bought some pretty heavy duty angle brackets from Ace Hardware, bolted those to the trailer frame and the reflectors screwed to those.

 

Thanks Rahlow for doing the extra recon for me, that's incredibly nice and really appreciated.

1/2'' PVC, put a male adapter on it, drill hole in finder, put nut on bottom side

PVC has the advantage over threaded rod because it won't scratch your boat. Threaded rod has the advantage of being stronger and I'd imagine it to be easier to work with depending on the skill set and tools.

Simple fix for that "problem".  Slide a piece of pvc pipe over the threaded rod.

I took the trailer/yak out today and did okay until trying to get it backed in to its teeny slot at the house. Shed on one side, garden on the other, big tree at the end...maybe 6" of leeway either side. 

 

Is there by chance something in the shed with a hitch ball on it? You can probably see it pretty well on the quad or the tractor.
