Now I know it sounds like this is a way to get your chubby buddy from point A to point B but it's not. This Fat Boy Kayak/Canoe cart adjusts and straps on to your vessel in seconds and folds down pretty flat.

| Review: | The fat boy cart is great when it has an axle that fits the tire and the tires are inflated. The first cart I received had the axle defect and the second had a flat tire with a defective tube. Austin kayak was great with replacing the defective parts. The replacement of the tube is very difficult. I have yet to get it fixed. | ||||

| Review: | I am not a fat boy by any stretch of the imagination, but I am getting a wee bit older and this is sure nice for moving my kayak to and from the water. | ||||

| Review: | I recently had a chance to try out a lot of kayak carts on a group paddle trip, including a couple of center and end carry styles. One thing became clear… whatever the particular model, I had to get one! They are indispensable for a long carry to the launch, and avoid multiple trips if you want to load your gear first. While all the models had their respective merits and drawbacks, I chose to get a Paddleboy Fat Boy because it met my needs for a variety of larger boats (Dagger Legend 16, Eddyline Nighthawk 175 and Tarpon 160), and most importantly was on sale, with an additional 15% discount coupon and free shipping! I am quite pleased with the Fat Boy. It is remarkably easy to set up and use, accommodates wider/larger boats well, is robust remaining in place over rough terrain (*if* you follow the directions to adjust the height for your boat and pull it up until it contacts the boat gunwales so there is no side-to- side motion/trapezoidal collapsing!), minicel foam on the bottom provides secure support, it is quick to disassemble, collapse and stow. One thing I liked over the center designs is that when collapsed you can wrap the bungee cord around the frame holding it closed and roll it like a wheeled walking stick rather than having to pick it up and carry it. I inflated the tires to 5# under max pressure; they are still holding well after a month. They roll easily whether over hard, uneven terrain or soft sand. Yes, they smell when new; they all do. It will go away. Washing them off helps. Stems were easy to access and attach a fill fitting (I used an emergency car tire inflator that plugs into the lighter, took 30 seconds). If the fittings have receded slightly when deflated just pull them up with your fingers or hold them with a pair of needle nose pliers while attaching the fitting. No problems when partially inflated. Regarding trapezoidal collapsing with narrow boats: I added a short section of thin 1" blown foam split pipe insulation to the upper support arms. Voila, problem solved! They may interfere with collapsing the carrier as designed, but are easily removed or moved. Stowing it aboard is a not as easy as I would like it to be, but in reality all carts of any pneumatic tire design take up a lot of room because of the tires. This one is no exception. Not an option I would use often, but I'm not sure any competitive pnuematic tire model would be better. | ||||
