I enjoy my Native Watercraft Slayer Max Ten Propel kayak, once it’s on the water. Getting it in the water, and out again, is a problem. Although it’s only ten feet long, it’s wide (for a kayak), and weighs about 95 pounds with the pedal drive unit loaded. I’m already resigned to using a trailer instead of car-topping it. But, moving the kayak around is another problem.
After trying out some commercial kayak carts that didn’t work out, I designed and built my own. I ended up with a cart that weighs 9-1/2 pounds, and costs about $100 in parts. This is my “How-To” building a Native Watercraft kayak cart.
