Portage Cart for Canoes and Kayaks : 7 Steps (with Pictures) - Instructables

DIY kayak carts
I've built a fair number of kayak carts in the last few years. I've tried a stowable commercial cart but found it too narrow, tippy, and did not support the kayak well, not something I'd trust my composite kayaks to especially when loaded. My current system with the mountain bike tires for support works really to the point I don't have to strap my kayak in when I walk it 15 minutes to the beach. Biggest drawbacks with using strollers is chrome steel will rust, and bearings eventually will seize. My little carts with the 12" tires have no problem handling 110 lbs. More on reddit.com

Small kayak carts that I can put in the kayak with me when I going out?
I have the little $50 Ozark Trail one from Walmart. It works fine. When I put in on the water, I just fold it down and strap it to the back of the kayak and it rides with me. Then it's right there, ready to go when I'm done. More on reddit.com
