Saw this video and made one. I love it! No straps. No falling off. And just pick up your kayak to remove. Also stores on top so you don't have to run back to the vehicle. Thank you for this!
@@kyleroyer9227 my hoodoo impulse 120 is around the same weight I believe. While I haven’t used it a ton, it has been fine so far. You should read some of the other comments for some concerns people have but I haven’t had an issue
Been going thru the same issue. After yesterday I am gonna make one myself. I can now park once load the kayak add them under it. Drag it to the boat launch out of the way of real boaters lol. Stick it on the back of the kayak and head out .
Your explanation is very good my friend, the car you built is both very useful and can be easily adapted to any canoe. I have a Feelfree kayak and I'm going to build one identical to this car. Thanks
Did something similar awhile back and then I recreated the cart and added rod holders into cart. Just an Idea for you to add. It does mean version 2 but it is easy to add some Ts in the long vertical pieces and then adapter another T into that T that you can use as a rod holder I have 4 (1 on each vertical PVC run and then 2 on the bottom horizontal run). Makes the cart sturdier as well. Nonetheless, it just fun to mess with. Thanks for the video, keep it up!
It’s made for taking the kayak over land so you don’t have to carry it or drag it, however you still have to lift the kayak to remove it and then launch by hand. When you are done, pull the kayak onto land and pick up the back end or turn it on its side to re-install. Thank you!
I was wondering if it would be beneficial to spray the tubes full of Great Stuff before adding the two last tees and reducers where the axles go? My thinking is it might make it more rigid
I like the kayak caddy idea of taking the caddy with you in case, in case I have to walk back to my truck. Can you list out the pieces of pvc that you used?
Appreciate the feedback! I can but unless you have the same kayak, it likely won’t fit. It’s just 1” sch 40 pvc and 1” pvc “tee” fittings. If you have the same one I can measure and let you know
Very rarely are scupper holes reinforced to be capable of withstanding the pressure carts that style that put on them. Only a few manufacturers do it. Great idea but just something to consider.
I appreciate the feedback! The weight of it should be on the bar spanning the bottom of the kayak so unless you’re trying to pull it over large obstacles there shouldn’t be too much pressure on the scuppers and I think it should be okay
I have a Glide Trolley in the rear scupper holes of a 3 Waters Big Fish 120 decked out with a large lithium battery and crate at the back and it doesn't even bother it. You can push the trolley under water and it floats upward into the scupper holes and you simply walk out of the water. Too easy.
i think its a great video...I am uncertain about compromising the scupper hole integrity...especially if there is a mold line there. Great thing is that you look like you wont need a tie down around kyak. I think I will take idea, and make one with a football goal post that just gives me a 4-6 inch riser, and of course will use a tie down (not ratchet style)cam straps. This also will allow me to place in yak, (if need) without compromising the rod holders i have also. Overall...thank you for the ideas, great video.
@@InventiveImagery I haven’t made any changes. No issues so far but I haven’t used it a ton as I have been land-based fishing mostly but need to get it out. Thank you!
@@dantonsworldlld1666 I haven’t been kayak fishing as much as I want to lately so it hasn’t gotten a ton of use but haven’t had any issues with it so far
Interesting, thank you for the feedback. Make sure it is sch 40 pvc as it is stronger than sch 80. 1.25” would be stronger than 1” as well so that might help although 1” may still have to be used for the uprights if using the scupper holes, not sure if the 1.25” would fit.
I haven’t noticed any problems with it. The bottom of my kayak is pretty flat in that area so the weight is not only on the scupper holes. If it causes any issue I’ll be sure to follow up on it but I think it will be okay. Appreciate the comment!
@@SaltwaterHorizonsFishingI heard cutting a tennis ball and puttin half of one end on the bottom it protects the pipe from making contact with the plastic

Glad it could help you!
I have a 96lbs kayak do you think this would hold up for that amount of weight

Best bit of kayaking kit 100%
Very helpful for sure!
Have to say one of the best videos I saw in a long time keep making videos
Thank you for the encouragement! I have been busy with work unfortunately but plan to start making videos again shortly. Happy Thanksgiving!

Thank you for the feedback! Glad it could help. Good luck!
Nice job, cool idea with the paint scheme. 👍👍👍
Thank ya! I did like how the paint turned out, might need to do my beach cart like that
I'm in need of this one ASAP. I'm so glad i found this video. Thank you. Blessed. From Belize.
Thank you for the feedback!
Brilliant! Im making one. Thanks for the video!
Thank you!
Seems simple. Will try when I get my new kayak soon.
Cool, let me know how it works for you. Good luck!
Such a fantastic Idea, Sir!!!
Thank you!
Wish I would have watched this video before I made mine. Yours was Soo much easier to build. Great video
Thanks for the feedback!

That actually is a great idea, I will have to look into that. Thanks for the feedback!
Great job. Have to make one for myself so I don't have to strap my foldable cart all the time.
@@SilvermanAdventuresFishing Thank you! Do some research with your specific kayak, some have said the scupper carts can cause issues
cool idea. how do you remove it and put back on while its still in the water?
It’s made for taking the kayak over land so you don’t have to carry it or drag it, however you still have to lift the kayak to remove it and then launch by hand. When you are done, pull the kayak onto land and pick up the back end or turn it on its side to re-install. Thank you!

@@ArthurEngle-fr2sr That’s actually an interesting idea. I bet it would help with the rigidity. Thanks for the thought!

Thank ya!
Great video, exactly what i was looking for
Thanks for the feedback!
Definitely a money saver especially when you have considered purchasing a more expensive option like the Wilderness cart.
Absolutely, saves money for more interesting gadgets like a new rod and reel, etc.
Looking good!!
Thank you!
Very good

@@Jpgundarun nice setup, appreciate the input!
Perfecto sencillo y economico, gracias por el video
Gracias amigo!
Thanks for the great video. A material list in the description would be helpful.
Thank you! I forgot to but I will add it
about how long are the lengths that go through the scupper holes.
I will have to double check that for you

Did you change anything after doing this? Ever run into any issues? Thanks! :)

Love this! Thanks

How do you like your hoodoo?
@@alexandergruszka2975 I like it. I haven’t had any complaints with it really. Stable enough for me to stand up when I need to
How well did it hold up ?
@@dantonsworldlld1666 I haven’t been kayak fishing as much as I want to lately so it hasn’t gotten a ton of use but haven’t had any issues with it so far
Maybe trim the ends of the T fittings to get a little more thread on the axle?
That might help some. I should have just bought a longer threaded rod but thought for sure that one would be enough lol
Like it!
Thank you!
I mad it 6 months later it cracked apart when I went over some bumps

“So I changed my mind. I am gonna glue it”😂😂😂😂😂😂
Not for any particular reason or anything🤷🏼♂️
Music was a bit quiet, turn it up a bit plz. I could still hear u talking 😆
Thanks for the feedback
Use neoprene nuts
You changed your mind or your mind was changed for you?
It’s debatable😂
Very weak spot on the majority of kayaks . Plastic to plastic connection inside scupper not made to have load placed on them .
I haven’t noticed any problems with it. The bottom of my kayak is pretty flat in that area so the weight is not only on the scupper holes. If it causes any issue I’ll be sure to follow up on it but I think it will be okay. Appreciate the comment!
@@SaltwaterHorizonsFishing I'm pullin' for ya !
@@richdorak1547 appreciate ya!

@@SaltwaterHorizonsFishingain't nothing gone happen ppl always scared. Good job man gona make one myself.
You are so cute but music is too loud. ❤
Loose the music, it's too loud and pretty shit
