Love paddling in your local river, but hate lugging the canoe or kayak from your car to the water? Turn to the Paddleboy Heavy Lifter cart, which makes it a breeze for one person to tote boats as heavy as 400 pounds. Canoe & Kayak magazine called the Heavy Lifter "the 4 x 4 pickup of boat carts," and its easy to see why with such features as a stainless-steel frame, 10-by-4-inch pneumatic tires, and 20-inch crossbars.

The Heavy Lifter cart pulls canoes or kayaks as heavy as 400 pounds.

The Heavy Lifter is a center cart, meaning it sits under the middle of your boat while you pull it from one end. This allows the cart to manage most of the load, so you can tote heavier crafts without requiring assistance from a second person. In fact, the cart is so strong that you can also tote tandem kayaks, rowboats, and expedition craft. And when you've reached your destination, the Heavy Lifter easily disassembles into four pieces without the need for tools.

The Heavy Lifter--which does not come with straps--offers an 11-inch clearance, weighs 9 pounds, and carries a one-year warranty. Paddleboy also sells a line of end carts, which manage less weight but are easier and quicker to load.

About Paddleboy
The very first Paddleboy cart was born out of pure selfish concern. In 1995, dedicated paddler Brian Witt struggled to transport his canoes and kayaks across the park and down to the water. As any paddler without a cart knows, this kind of lugging uses energy that should be reserved for paddling. Witt knew there had to be a better way, so he designed a prototype cart that became the essence of every canoe and kayak enthusiast's dream: less lugging and more paddling. Today, Paddleboy Designs--located in Seattle, Washington--is the only watercraft cart manufacturer to offer both end and center carts, as well as one of the most supportive, competent dealer networks in the country. Canoe & Kayak Magazine called our Heavy Lifter "the 4 x 4 pickup truck of boat carts." Made from burly stainless steel, it hauls up to 400 pounds on its 10" x 4" pneumatic tires. Rugged terrain is no problem for the 11" clearance and no-axle design. With 20" crossbars, the super-strong Heavy Lifter is great for adventure racers that need a cart that can take a super-pounding, or heavyweight ro boats and expedition craft.
