Pro tip here.. install straps/tie downs on the cart. My c-tug came with them. While your kayak is still in the bed.. pull the kayak out to where the spot you attach the cart is between the bed and bed extender. Use the straps to pull the part snug to the bottom, strap it. Remove the extended piece or just the lift the kayak up/around the extender. Done. I’ve got a Crew, LT1, CK1 with a C-tug with the rail conversion. Getting the yak attack cart for my next one for sure!
I really really wish people would show the loading process coming in off the water at a ramp with all your stuff in the kayak. That’s when I find it to be problematic.
Hey Jeff, Maybe this is just too obvious or maybe it won't work. How about swapping out the two nuts that need the wrench to a couple more thumb nuts like the other two. That way you could tighten them down without a tool and loosen them off as well to break down the cart.
Totally, the only reason we didn't was because this was an unboxing/as is comparison. Next up we can totally modify the cheap cart. Thanks for pointing that out
I agree with your statement that the larger wheel diameter makes rolling across uneven terrain easier than it would be with small wheels, but something you failed to mention is wheel/tire width. Those tall wheels are so narrow that they will more readily sink into soft surfaces such as mud, sand, fine gravel and, of course, snow. You WILL be kayaking in the snow, right? That's why some carts offer a "beach" wheel/tire option that has a wider footprint. Your bicycle analogy works here as well. How easy is it to ride your skinny tire bike through loose beach sand? I also think that the kickstand feature will be used far less frequently than expected. After a few times of reaching below your kayak to access them, it won't be convenient.
Great video, been having my eye on the Yak Attack TowNStow, this helps. However, have an unrelated question: What brand of knives are you using for your PFDs?
Can the bunkster be used without the kickstand with one end sticking up like the other cart and the wilderness systems cart? The kickstands seem like they could be annoying in some situations
Boys, these boats should feel like you just knocked the donut off your bat before stepping up to the plate....as compared to your Hobies....just carry them to the launch😮...just joking Nattie Up North...dragging them is free as well....ok, I'll stop! Seriously, super jazzed for your new rides.

So do they, which is why there's no one showing it.
Agree. And short people doing this.
Indeed, everything else is irrelevant. This problem makes me stay home sometimes.
This seems more like salesmen than actual problem solving
I have the gandfindx and it's honestly great for the money, especially since I have a big boat and dont need to adjust the width.
Thanks for sharing, we're getting better with your suggestions!✌✌
Thanks for sharing this! I definitely love the bigger wheels.
Put loop straps on the cart and you can adjust the cart position while under the kayak.
Glad you acknowledged landing gear kind of sucks 😮
Happy Monday Nerds!

Amazon has another one slightly cheaper,60-65$ and it has adjustable pads for the bottom of the yak , it’s also adjustable for different width hulls
Could be junk… don’t know

12:03 you forgot to raise the kickstands…they are digging into ground when you drag it. 😮
I was literally trying to decide between these 2 and then i found this video. Think ill go with the yak
🙌
NICE WHEELS YOU GUYS ✨✨✨

Early ownership = high care. Eventually we drag em lol
Yeah give it a week hahaha
If ya really wanna test these bad boys out em on a NuCanoe Unlimited. Might be the chonkiest boat out there
It is wide
Wing nuts you don't need wrenches
A necessary upgrade for the amazon one
You cannot go wrong with the Shoalie🤫🤫 it's the undercover yak. Don't tell anyone 😮
Ope!
Go a wilderness can’t beat em
This amazon cart is essentially a copy nof the wilderness for $80
@@aaanglers it does look a bit like it but definitely not the quality the wheels on it he wildernesses are on another level
@pitchkapizda8355 at $200 for the wildy, there are a lot of other options is all im saying
Caveat emptor! Buyer beware. Ya get what ya pay for
Lol
This is why I love you guys!
