I used to live just a block and a half from a place where I could put in. I built a cart for carrying my kayak down to the put in. After rolling it down and putting the kayak in the water I'd "stash" it under a tree in a spot that wasn't really visible unless you climbed down the bank. After paddling one day I came back to find that someone had taken the cart. I doubt that they even knew what it was used for. Carrying a heavy british boat a block and a half is *no fun*. >Again, my likes and dislikes could be a bit irrelevant since I haven't >really used any other cart to much of a degree. But, we like ours and >couldn't do without them! One of the other nice features of a cart is one that will mount near the middle of the boat rather than sliding onto the end. That way you're only pulling the boat and not lifting *and* pulling. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced/forwarded outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: PaddleWise_at_PaddleWise.net Subscriptions: PaddleWise-request_at_PaddleWise.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Mon Jul 24 2000 - 12:21:05 PDT
