Oryx Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 (edited) would it fit in one of the thule bags or yakima rooftop boxes? Edited November 14, 2012 by Oryx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fang Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 I have a nanook and it is a bit of a pull with snow. What I might look at is leaving those big comfy seats at home when you are car toting it and buy a couple of fold down stools from canadian tire.

Acountdeleted Posted November 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 So good news, today with the help of my dad I was able to fit the ice hut half into the trunk of my car. A few bungees and rachet straps later and I was able to tote the hut around the neighbourhood with the greatest of ease. Should be good to go this winter.

tater0025 Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 I wouldn''t want to drive any distance in the middle of winter with my trunk half opened, besides the fact of trying to squeeze it in and out at the beginning and end of your trips. The 2 man flip is the way to go if you have a machine to pull it, but pulling them out on the ice with any amount of snow sucks. I know this isn't what you want to hear but I'd sell it and buy a hub style hut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

landry Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 Lol X2 It will pull just fine with a smitty sled. But I would still sell it and get one that fit in my car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoty Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I have a Nanook and pull it by hand ALL the time, as I dont have a sled or ATV. It's really not bad at all. I've rigged mine up to be able to remove one seat when I'm fishing along, and that cuts the weight down a bit. As long as you have cleats you're fine dragging it by hand.

We're trying to get him to buy a new car, or sell his hut.... You must mean pulling the nanook is easy, if somebody else pulls it for you...right?
