Is the cart collapsible so it can be stored in a kayak? I wouldn't want to leave it behind fearing it would be stolen.

The whrels come off with a simple pin and it all folds flat but with the bulkiness of the tires and awkward shape of the frame it does not fit in my storage hatch. Individual parts will but not the whole thing. The frame is very light tho so you could strap it onto your kayak

Yes it is collapsible so it can be stored on the Kayak. I have the Hobie outback and I store it behind the seat so I can use it as a armrest.

No, can not be stored inside my kayak, however I take the wheels off and fold the frame flat and attach to the front of my kayak and it works fine. I actually LOVE this cart - I've had a few others, this one is great, the wheels are big and solid and don't puncture, ... good product!Hope this is helpful.

NO, will not fit in or on my kayak, I like it because it,s easy to roll on soft sand. Since I don't expect to use the cart until I come backto the launch point no problem leaving it in truck.Jim Baldwin

I don't know why you would want to. They do lock, so the cart doesn't move. I really like mine.

I have a 12 foot ocean kayak. I fold up the cart and bungee it to the back.

The metal holders at the middle of the cart pull right out and they actually come detached from the cart. The plastic cups at the bottom of the cart are riveted onto the cart so you would have to drill out the rivets to remove them.

Yes, it is collapsible. There's a connecting bar at the top, and once it is disconnected, the sides fold down. When you detach the wheels, the body folded is probably about 6" high. Hope this helps!

Hi,I carried an aluminum canoe on my 5 door golf using this rack once, so I think your kayak would be just fine. You'd need straps to tie down to the frame of your car though, obviously. This rack pretty much just serves as an offset so the kayak isn't riding right on the roof. I think if you wanted to secure the kayak without using rope etc. you'd have to find some special connection in addition to this rack.

HiI wouldnt know since i never tried it... However i also use the cart to carry over 17 gallons of water for my mom every other week and it seems sturdy enough. I believe as long as u pull the cart over each step with care the wheels shouldnt break or fall off. The cart is very light for its size...id say less than 12lbs.

There is a big carrying handle on the front that you could loop a cable-type bike lock through, if you had a post or tree close enough. The other option is to simply deflate it and take it with you. We have a rolling duffle bag that the kayak, pump and paddles all fit in, and we've occasionally bungeed the duffle to the back storage compartment so that we could take a one-way trip downstream and then take the kayak back with us on a bus.

I store mine by standing it on end and water can come in but also drains out. The seat closure does not have a waterproof seal. Don't know of any lawn cart that does. You can turn it over with the seat on the bottom when a rain is coming and the tools would stay dry. All I am sure of is that this is absolutely THE BEST multipurpose lawn cart I have ever used. It is extremely durable and comes with a lifetime guarantee. I scoot around on it a lot and I weigh 200 pounds. It is a weight I can carry into limited access areas. I am 4'10" and 75 years old. This is a great lawn and garden tool. I store mine by standing it on end and water can come in but also drains out. The seat closure does not have a waterproof seal.

I am not the use of this kayak cart, however, I am a mechanical engineer. My assessment of this cart is that it is an excellent design. You can probably carry anything relatively slender that will fit on the cart, stay tied to the cart, and pull it at the front. Wheels come off easily for storage during use. My assessment is that the limitation in length will be is when you are pulling your kayak will the rear end of the kayak will drag on the ground. Based on the other comments and my step son's kayak, 14 ft. should not be an issue. I do not remember the design limit for weight, this will probably not be an issue.

As with the two previous answers, you strap the cart to the kayak and pull with the lanyard handle that, hopefully, came attached to your kayak

I would recommend a cart with a larger wheel base. Even with my kayak unloaded it can be a touch unstable on even normal terrain. A good cart but definitely would recommend a wider based cart for the sun fish

The TMS cart works great for my 10 ft Kayak (SOT) and it rolls easily. If you have a paved or gravel road, or a decent trail you would have no problem. Walking on a good surface with this cart is a breeze - even when loaded with fishing gear.

I transport my kayak on it and it works great. I'd put my board in a bag just to keep debris from getting on it but I'm sure it would be fine either way as long as you secure it tightly

I think it would be fine. My kayak is fairly flat bottomed. The dolly needs to be on the center of whatever you are pulling and it needs to be strapped tight.

It can be detached from the rolling cart base, but that is not the designed use. I'm not sure how secure the top will stand on its own.

The wheels pop off so it does collapse to a relatively small size. I'm able to store it in one of my hatches with no problem. With the sit on, you will probably be able to attach it with bungees.
