The average transport process takes around two to three weeks to transport a kayak, which may vary depending on the location and the type of kayak being transported. If you are transporting a kayak across the country by truck, it will generally take longer than if you were transporting it by plane. For instance, transporting a kayak from California to New York might take a little longer than usual because of the distance. Similarly, if you are transporting a lightweight kayak, it might take less time than expected.
