PA Rigging

Just wanted to ask you PA owners what worked or didn't work for you on your ride? After 8 years on a revo I feel a little lost.

The only thing I hate about my PA is the beach cart I got for it. If you can get the Boonedox it would be a wise choice.

I hate having to tip the kayak which means I must take off all my gear first. There is a video on youtube showing how to use the cart without tipping the kayak but I haven't tried the method yet.

The PA was the easiest to rig out of all my kayaks. The Hobie rail mounts are great. Mount anything you want, move stuff around, no holes to drill, easy. I use the Wheel-eze beach cart, no tipping the kayak over and no stress on the scuppers. About the only thing I really had to do was the FF wiring.

Thanks for the photos! Do you like the 5" screen on the wedge mount Jim? How's the visibility that far away?

I am looking at a C-Tug cart with Sandtrakz wheels. not quite as much as the Boonedox, not quite as heavy, not quite as convenient, either, I must admit. It is an alternative.

I have the Wheelez with the large wheels, it's handles my PA loaded with 5 hoopnets and all other gear without a problem.

Reviews on the C Tug are that the wide hard wheels do not work well in deep soft sand. The hard wheels push sand out in front instead of flotation over it like the ballon tires do...

7" is better

The 7" screen is better especially if you use a split screen.
I like the screen up front when I'm out hooping to help clear the clutter with the LONG ropes.
Lots of guys like the unit in close on one of the sides to change the settings or to zoom in...I guess I'm more flexible or just don't change the setting a lot...LOL
