I use a post WWll (might be 1947 vintage) 1/4 ton Bantam trailer to carry my 14' PA.  The trailer has 11" of ground clearance and my 4x4 can drag it to isolated high Sierra lakes.  The only con to this trailer is that the PA sits over 5' off the ground.  I am no spring chicken at 57 but I still manage to lift the PA by myself to the top of the trailer. 
BTW, when I bought my PA in the early summer of 09 no one had any PA's for demo so I bought it without trying it and have been happy ever since. 
I have since changed the 6 Yakima Mako Shark mounts to two 4" black PVC pipes that run lengthwise on the trailer as the Mako mounts left dents in the PA hull.

I am still trying to go up to auburn and see about that trailer ron was nice enough to offer me, But apparently there is some unpaid ticket action on my record that needs to be taken care of, so I cannot buy the lights i need to get it home...And of course, I got to find out about it this morning.... on my birthday. I dont know why i feel like this, but I feel like this kayak is kind of fighting me the whole way to the water. ( figuratively)

These will get you home no problem for a very reasonable price.
I got mine on sale there for $12.

Cut it up into pieces then take it to a dump. This is why I didn't buy a PA. I only weigh 135.

Hahaha that was one of the first ideas...problem is, ours full of more garbage lol shoo that's a two step process of cleaning it out,all the stuff in there into my truck bed, then cut it, and finally dump it. Does anyone know about trailer registration in ca?
