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 this one: https://www.amazon.com/Railblaza-Puncture-Capacity-Reinforced-Material/dp/B00KX5A7NW/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=4AF6w&content-id=amzn1.sym.dba1a2d0-88dc-4504-a5d7-10259373e587&pf_rd_p=dba1a2d0-88dc-4504-a5d7-10259373e587&pf_rd_r=4MJTKVW2VQJN5PY5A2Y2&pd_rd_wg=ANq5f&pd_rd_r=a491c78c-2322-4fc4-a3c2-7b1c2d6b00fb&ref_=pd_gw_ci_mcx_mr_hp_atf_m They say you can collapse it quickly for storage on the kayak, but I just put it on the back of mine while still built. That said I do use a huge fishing kayak with lots of gear space. More on reddit.com
