Old Boat Jul 28, 2007
By Old Boat
"Old Boat"
I own a 15 foot rowing canoe which ways 75 pounds. This carrier sure makes getting down to the water a whole lot easier on my middle aged body.

Great Product Jun 30, 2009
By Love-a-good-book
This is just what we needed to transport our canoe down the road to water, without having to load it onto the car. Now we walk it down the street like a dog to the bay. It rolls beautifully, and seems sturdy. An added advantage is that we fold the carrier up and take it in the canoe, so that when the wind comes up,or the tide changes, we don't necessarily have to land at the same spot where we put in.

Save your energy for paddling. Mar 23, 2009
By wien0004
I've had this carrier for 4 seasons and have used it many times to cart my 15 foot canoe about 100 yards to the water. In the description it indicates that it has quick release wheels. On mine this is not the case: you have to spin the knobs nut off which takes a more then "seconds" (esp. if you drop the knob in the water.) However, the spring-loaded kick stand is an excellent feature and sets this carrier apart. If a carrier doesn't have this I'm not sure how easy it'd be to drag the boat onto the carrier as it'd keep sliding away. Overall it's well made. However, its durability comes at a weight cost: at 25 lbs I'd probably think twice about taking it along on a tour for portaging.

Better than Great! Dec 16, 2008
By C. Tucker
"errata right"
We have both a double kayak and a single kayak. It was an effort to hump both kayaks to many of the out-of-the-way spots that are accessible to kayaks only. I purchased the carrier for my husband's birthday, and at first he was affronted that I thought he couldn't handle the boats himself, being a manly outdoorsy kind of guy. However, when we assembled the carrier and he tried it out, he fell in love with it! The carrier is easily maneuverable and the full-sized kick stand allows stable loading, unloading and parking.
We are anxious to put it to the full range of use next spring, but it has already opened up many more opportunities to access more remote locations that we otherwise would have avoided due to the length and difficulty of getting to the launch site and/or portage.
I finally found a gift my husband is excited about. The shipping was prompt, the packaging was secure, and the assembly was easy.

Great for the Long Haul Dec 21, 2008
By M. Morris
It's about a half mile to take my kayak from my garage to the river, 20% over an unimproved road. With this carrier and its bicycle wheels, the walk with the kayak is an easy trip.
