I like dropshotting them.

I have to load them the way I do since I'm carrying two of them on my rack.

I carry them like this with the seats and flexpod removed. I get the bottom gunnel on the cradles, then I tip the top of the kayak over until it fully rests on the cradles. This isn't me, btw. I'm not saying it's easy, but it is do-able. Edit - this isn't me btw.

I cartop my Atak 120's. yes, 2. Easily done by myself with the seat removed, a little trickier with the seat in. The center dry hatch on the Atak 120 is almost inaccessible when on the water because of the seat being on top of it depending on how the kayak is trimmed. The rear hatch is a pretty far reach from the seat also. The Atak 120 is pre rigged for a Wildy rudder which is awesome, but if you're not planning on installing one, I would suggest dabbing silicone in the foot control tubes. I would suggest dabbing silicone in every factory mounting hole to be safe. Your hull will not capsize, but your dry hatches will no longer be dry hatches. Plenty of track, Flexpod, Airpro Max seat, accessories, the Atak 120 is an awesome boat. I'm sure the Big Rig is amazing as well. I would not dismiss the Radar From Wilderness Systems in either size before you decide.

x2 on the twist!

I went with 2 Atak 120s. One for me and one for my fiancé. We needed something that was light enough to carry two of them on top of our car roof rack. We also needed to be able to get them up and down from there in the first place. I wanted more stability and didn't need to pedal for an added thousand dollars each. Get the longest kayak that fits your budget and needs. You will track better, have better speed, more stability, and not get turned around in the wind quite as frequently.
