C-Tug Kayak and Canoe Trolley with Sandhopper Wheels, Green

One of the best decision I ever made in buying this specific kit in my kayaking venture. I had everything else but couldn't face the hassle of the old wheels that slipped every time I was taking my kayak down to my close river. Now I can confidently leave without having to adjust it at all after going up/down pavements and crossing the road. I turned the plates on an inward facing position which can be done and this suited my hull best. So easy to set up and dismantle. And lightweight. Never have to manage or check deflating tires! Makes going off for my trip hassle free and definitely worth the extra money for the confidence and whole experience (I found the previous once so stressful) and now I can travel further to the better slipway🙌 . Excellent quality kit! You won't regret it! Delivery was quick also.. Only a couple of days and I was off🙃 Tips: I watched youtube channels for the webbing threading to buckle at the beginning which really helped. Also watched a couple of others for the actual assembling, but visual is my preferred choice of instructions for my Neuro brain. But the paper ones that come with it would be no problem….i used both! Hope this helps in your decision!

First trolley I bought from Decathlon. Quality was superb , price was half of this one but Kayak even slipped after straps so returned same day. Second trolley I bought was TITAPS for almost same price as this one. Simply awesome design, compact, easily foldable but same problem. Kayak even slipped after straps thus returned via Amazon same day. This was my third attempt to buy something suitable for my "Pelican™ Mission" Kayak and it worked like wonders. Top Pros:- 1. Wide enough for any size of Kayak 2. Compact enough if you want to store in Kayak storage 3. Easily dismantles (don't folds like TITAPS but dismantles in seconds) (Though I will never dismantle and will use bungee ropes in rear Kayak storage) 4. Very big wide wheels with thin rubber layer. You try it on shingle , sand, mud, grass, tarmac, it is simply impossible to slip 5. Quality is top notch. Made in New Zealand. 6. Design and Concept is fantastic. Can't skid , can't slip. 7. If you are confused about size, design or your Kayak , suitability and compatibility. One thing I can assure this Kayak should work smoothly for any design of Kayak. It's design of side wings are meant to self adjust as per Kayak design. CONS:- 1. Pricey :- Kayak trolleys starts from £30 and goes upto £200. This is off-course pricey but I am ready to pay for this price if it grantees it won't slip and it is for sure best choice. 2. Stand:- Stand in this Kayak looks flimsy however I doubt it will brake easily. I will see how it goes. Over all 5 Star rating. If that would have been a failure only option for me left out was diy.

This is a great trolley. Lightweight and robust, it carries our 4.6 inflatable kayak securely even over rough ground. Also works well on tarmac and loose sand. It is quick to take apart and store onboard when setting off. Well thought out, the only niggle is the folding leg, which lets the whole thing down; it is way too flimsy and does not stay down when loading the craft on top of it. But for the flimsy leg, this would be a five-star product.

OK. Before I purchased this trolley, I posted questions about its suitability for use with an open (Canadian) canoe. No-one had experience of using the trolley for this purpose, but helpful replies gave me the courage to invest. I'm glad I did. (Yes, I know that it is called a "Kayak and Canoe Trolley" but the word "canoe" is widely interpreted. The product description calls it "The C-TUG kayak cart" and the website only shows kayaks. And I was scared of wasting nearly £100!) But, bottom line, it works. Actually, it works brilliantly. It arrived disassembled, and the instruction leaflet is not great (as one other reviewer had stated - but it took me only 5 minutes to assemble. No screws required. The most difficult thing was working out how the straps fitted - but a bit of thought solved the conundrum. Assembled, the trolley is pretty rugged, especially as it's plastic throughout, and light - about 10 lbs. The wheels are secure but also easy to remove for storage on board if required. The adjustable pads mean that any craft, whether V or flat keeled, can be accommodated. My Open Canoe is a Hou Canoes 15ft 7 inch Prospector, weighing around 34 kgs. The trolley is rated for 120 kgs, so no problem here. The Prospector has very little keel, but the pads fold flat to hold her securely. With the strap secured, the trolley is very stable, and manoeuvring is exceptionally easy. Portages are a breeze, and gravel and firm sand pose no problems. So, expensive - yes. But I spent half the price some years ago on a trolley that was not fit for the job - a waste of money. You don't always get what you pay for - but in this case you do, I think.

Ok, this is a great cart! First, the good: Easy to put together Material seems sturdy Easy to take apart Strap buckle system is great Kind of easy to store when on the water (see note below) There really isn't much "not so good", but rather stuff to keep in mind when you load your kayak. These items are easily fixed with a bit of practice, just keep them in mind when you load your kayak. My first and second attempt at loading the kayak on the cart almost made me return it but after watching a quick youtube video I realized the obvious mistake I was making and fixed it. The straps were a bit tricky to install- you just have to adjust them to tighten down the cart to the kayak. You really have to watch where you place the cart. I thought I had it in the right position towards the back of the kayak because that seemed like the most obvious place to do so but big mistake, it slipped off crashing my kayak to the ground even though the straps were secure. The second attempt the straps weren't tight enough- same result after I started pulling the kayak. On the third attempt I put the cart right behind the seat area, almost under the seat, and it worked but I found that having the kickstand face forward was a must and I had to really tighten down the straps which is very easy to do with the type of strap buckle it has. I walked my kayak a good 75 to 100 yards to the launch area which had a steep decline and the cart never slipped. This cart was easy to manuver and was easy to control. Overall a great cart, once you troubleshoot a bit and fine tune your method of loading the kayak to the cart, it is very easy. As for the straps, after you figure out the straps, they are very beneficial. In fact, after I loaded the kayak into my truck, I kept the cart assembled and used the straps to secure the cart to the bed of my truck so it wouldn't fall out. Here is a good tip for stowing the cart on the kayak while on the water, I have a sit on top that does not have any hull storage but does have a storage area behind the seat that has bungee attachments like a net. Initially I was going to just bungee the cart behind the seat area but instead bought the RUNCL 40L Waterproof Dry Bag ANCOHUMA and used that to store the cart. You just take off the wheels and the pads and the whole thing fits into the bag without a problem. I used the clips from the bag shoulder straps to string the bungee through to keep it completly secure. Not a single issue at all and the whole setup keeps everything safe and secure. Overall a great cart!

Ottimo per il mio kayak da pesca 👍👍

Lättmonterad och lätt att ta isär. Något knepigt att förstå hur instruktionen menar att remmarna skall dras.

J'en avais acheté avant un autre qui n'arêtait pas de se plier. Celui ci est facile à installer, ne bouge pas sur le kayak, m^me sur un terrain accidenté. A noter des roues qui passent partout, y compris sur un sol sablonneux. Je recommande. A faire attention quand vous le mettez sur le kayak en navigation que les roues soient bien clipsées; Top qualité

Recommend this kayak trolley for the sandy areas as it rides well over wet and dry sand. Not so good on the road or concrete as it makes a racket and the kayak vibrates, not great for my fibreglass boat.
