Thumbs up Homemade kayak cart
I just wanted to show the kayak cart I made out of pvc. For anyone that wants to build one, it's really easy. Total cost is about $30. Wheels are usually the most expensive item but they were only $4.99 at Harbor Frieght. Fun little project and works great.

Yep, 1". The "T's" on top are removeable as well as the stand. They're held in place with small pins and clips. Wheels are also removable without tools.

That looks great. The wheels alone look like $30.

There was a guy around here who used to tow a yak behind a bicycle for a long way, like 15 miles ore so!
