Hobie's newest cart

[oneyedeer]

Didnt team sewer thought about this already

I dont care who thought about it first - I need it!

Dragging my PA14 through the sand on a standard cart is a workout and a half!

I'm getting too old for that...

How are you supposed to load the kayak without turning it on it's side?

Bigger question is, How do you take it off your kayak thats loaded with gear with spilling everything?

One person can remove the cart easily without tipping it to the side, just lift it from the stern and the cart will drop out. To put the cart on with out tipping it to the side you need 2 people.

I thought it wasn't good to use the ones that fit in the scuppers?

I like the wheels tho.

I had read that people were making scupper hole wheel carts and using them on fully loaded non-Hobie kayaks, like the Malibus.. and there is a known weak area at the scupper hole sites that can crack and leak. The Hobies, are thicker reinforced plastic around the scupper holes, and are designed to accommodate the Hobie scupper wheel carts. The Hobies are fine with the scupper carts.

There are lots of posts on this topic on the Hobie Forums.

true dat !!!

that's why i have only used my wheels a few times, in 10 yrs of Hobie yakking.
if there is no one else around to help out after landing, then u can never get your yak back onto the wheels.

i always stay out on water until past sunset, then land on a dark beach.
rarely ever anybody else around on a dark beach.
