Wheeleze
When I had my pa 14 I switched to wheeleze and it made all the difference! I went from barely being able to drag it, to being able to pull it with one finger. If you balance the pa it's great.

They are both balloon tire sand carts. My question is more about sit-on cart (Wheeleez) vs plug-in cart (Trax 2). Pro's/Con's for the PA?

I like to know that too.
PA 14 : Fully Rigged Weight: 145.5 lbs With all your fishing gear / bait tank/ dry bags/ junks : 25 lb+ 2 yellowtail : 40 lb. I hear scupper hole are the weakest part of kayak , I know Hobie did reinforced it with PVC insert. Will plug-in cart not damage the PA 14 in the long run ? |

Who wants to go through the trouble of putting the kayak on the cart, wheeling it to the launch, then stowing or bringing the cart back to the car. This has already been addressed in a previous thread. Mod please close thread

Dont get the Mini for a PA, I got one for my 14ft Oasis Tandem and it's hard lining it up and balancing it when loaded with gear, trying to sell it now to get the larger version. The reason I got it was because the frame and wheels can be stowed inside the kayak but it's not really worth the trouble of getting it just right for it to work.
The mini will probably work ok for a smaller kayak like the sport or revo 11 or any kayak under 12' Last edited by Starsky; 04-07-2016 at 03:44 PM. |

For the plug-in cart, I saw a guy at the landing empty his PA then scratch the side of it up on the launch ramp when tipping the kayak over to insert the scupper cart. This is a pretty big negative for the Trax 2, unless there's another way?
For the sit-on cart, it doesn't look like the PA sits level on it, even with the rail kit added to the Wheeleez? Plus, that cart looks too big to store on the PA? So that means extra trips to the truck for storage.

If you are fishing a place with a boat ramp, put your wheels in before you are out of the water. The air in the tires will not let them fall out. Then just pull it out like the boat it is. |
