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.

May 12, 2025 - For quite some time, I’ve needed a good cart for my canoe. The first one I made had small wheels that couldn’t manage sand. The second one had a large frame with bicycle wheels and wouldn’t fit in the canoe. The third used a boat fender as a roller and worked great until the pressure of the axle tore a hole in it.
