So you’ve towed your kayak to a fishy place, only to realize you’ve got a couple hundred yards to carry it from car to water’s edge. Even with a light ’yak, this can be a chore (and sometimes a dangerous one). Wheeled carts can help. Hobie makes three excellent “plug-in” carts for its ’yaks (MSRPs $96 to $190), while retailer L.L. Bean offers the All-Terrain Boat Cart (pictured), which features large, sturdy wheels capable of transporting a boat over the roughest ground, and costs $130.
