I'm going to make a guess that the wheels aren't intended to replace a cart but rather to protect the keel when being dragged. With only a wheel on the center you're almost guaranteed to roll over when loaded up.

I think the idea of the wheel was nice and I think your idea is on point. The wheel is nice moving it around, but for major moving through sand and all that I recommend using a cart. What I noticed yesterday was after moving the Kayak to the beach without my cart, my arms were tired more so than if I had used my cart. I will still continue to use my cart to make life easier.

The suction cups were from Harbor freight. I watched a few Youtube videos and tried to duplicate some models but they weren't working for me. The Moken 14 is heavier than some Kayaks out there so I used the strength of he PVC rather than stress it. I've tested it a few times and the system works very well.
