In Response To: Re: Kayak Cart (Alex M)

: "Strong" - this is something I don't understand. To tow 50-60 lbs
: hull with 50-60 lbs cargo over sand or pebbles you don't need a strong
: cart. What you need is wide wheels. They should be at least 9" in
: diameter and 2" thick.

Strength has a direct bearing on durability. All else being equal, I will take the stronger cart.

: The only suitable commercial cart I know is Primex (sometimes called
: Roleeze)
: with 10" * 3" pneumatic wheels (= always carry a pump), cost
: about $110 and a little bit bulky even with wheels detached.

I didn't like that cart at all.

: The only
: self-made suitable cart that I know is the one that I've made.

Apparently mine is too. I showed it to a fabricator friend of mine and his only response was, "You better patant this!"

So now I am in a pickle because I don't have the time to go through the patant process but I cannot disclose the information about it before patenting.

I shot a video of it and was going to post it on this site and forget about patanting it. However, I can't figure out how to put it here and now have had time to think about it and don't know if I want to give up the rights.

And you thought women were bad for changing their minds!!!!
