The YakAttack TowNStow Kayak Cart

[@YakAttackKayakFishing]

We are happy to finally make the BarCart a reality. I know you have been wanting this one for a long time.

[@TheE-LightenedArtist]

A tire stripped off mine. I emailed YakAttack and they sent me a new wheel in a matter of days. No questions asked. Very Cool!

[@thewalkindude7716]

I've been using the Wilderness systems cart for about 3 years and while it does appear sturdier than this YakAttack cart. This cart seems a lot more versatile and it definitely folds and stores easier and more compact than the Wilderness Systems cart.

[@m14hh5]

I’d really need to have the need for space to consider this over my wildy cart. This looks like a lot of extra time putting the thing together and I’m pretty sure the wildy can be easily adjusted.

[@thiodorchalkias8906]

And the price is...???

[@fishnhub]

Mine came yesterday, and this thing is beefy! It's way heavier/ bigger than it looks on video and extremely stable with a kayak on it. I have a hobie lynx fully loaded with 100ah battery, trolling motor, power pole, fish finder, dewalt tough 2 drawer box, crate full of tackle and this makes it easy to launch / pull out of the water. The lynx has wide flat bottom and is extremely unstable side to side with the rails going up the middle, but this cart allows you to turn the rails sideways for all the stability. The rails are 44 inches long! You could be hammered drunk with one eye and still load a kayak with ease 😂. For me and my kayak setup it was well worth the money.

[@rodbrown8306]

Clever, good to see design in carry trolley's has been needed for a long time till now it's happening. Good video mate, well done.

[@crysl3343]

How heavy is your kayak?? Cuz mine is pretty dang heavy and 12'7 ... I feel it's not far enough off the ground to clear the stern when bow is lifted high enough to avoid having to bend over and essentially drag your vessel.... so you could probably get a cart that would accommodate your needs for a good bit cheaper.. thanks for info on new gear though

[@strunk_adventures9750]

Great video, Gene. Looks like it would be way easier to use than the Hobie scupper hole cart.

[@scottcarver6113]

Almost picked this up for my new to me yak. Just can’t stomach the $250 right now. But it’s a nice looking unit for sure! Thanks for another great video Gene! Would love for you to teach me how to fish, but California and Georgia are very very far apart. 😢. Appreciate you and your videos though! Thank you!

[@NorthWoodsWes]

Good vid. Crazy I just started looking for a cart yesterday to fit my yak.

[@roaddog1m]

For $50 and 12 min of my time, I made basically the same thing out of PVC and it actually goes together faster plus it's easier to load and launch!

[@bradyobrien9]

People who aren't mechanically inclined or motivated gotta pay the price. But absolutely, you can make your own or dramatically improve a cheap cart with some PVC and a little ingenuity.

[@alekart781]

Thanks for the video. I could use more videos to help me inexpensively get to using my kayak more. Right now im car topping it on my Subaru Outback. I would like yo go the trailer route but not sure i am ready to invest a ton of money into a trailer yet. Thanks again for the videos.

[@bradyobrien9]

Depending on other potential uses and needs.......I bought a utility trailer and put crossbars on it. I was able to justify the expense because I also needed a trailer for hauling yard junk and other misc. stuff. At the time I wouldn't have invested that much in a trailer strictly for Kayaking, but it fixed 2 issues at once (the need for a yak trailer and the need for a truck).

[@JamesJohnsonFishing]

Definitely beats using my PVC cart. Maybe I'll get a chance to upgrade at some point.

[@Mrfrerob]

For $250 this is way outside of replacing my pvc cart. I do love it and it is on my “want to have” list though.

[@markaldridge8755]

Very nice explanation

[@AlfredMorganFishing]

This thing is pretty dam nice!

[@bradyobrien9]

How well do those kickstands work? I'm short and therefore have short arms. I really struggle getting my yak on my existing cart when I'm on a steeper boat launch because it always rolls around, despite having a kickstand. Id those things hold it steady on an incline I'll be an owner.

[@richardsousa2625]

I’m glad you made one video showcasing the cart as opposed to YakAttack who made like 21 videos all less than a minute long 😂

[@mv3722]

How will this cart hold up to going over rocks and roots and ditches. Will the plastic parts hold up.

[@_Lt__Dan_]

My Native Titan looks like it would eat that for breakfast

[@davidwilliams1805]

Very nice cart! Thanks for sharing!

[@seanmyhre9426]

Make your own! Dam its so easy

[@thiodorchalkias8906]

I have seen before a lot of these kind of videos... ALL showing how easy is carry on a kayak OUTSIDE the water...but when is necessary to come out of the sea water and the waves are coming one after the other there is no time to make all these movements in order to assemble the cart....

[@crysl3343]

Will they take a boondox landing gear setup in trade for their product?? Cuz I was not happy with it but not willing to spend another 300 just to discover it's not a good fit 😕 lol

[@grumpysgarage7276]

I'd like a see a video on this vs a Wilderness Systems cart. This one is a lot of parts and costly

[@europeanian4205]

Yeah and notice how he used a much lighter, completely empty kayak to load on the cart. Also notice how it tried to roll away on him? Imagine trying to load a much heavier kayak on a slight incline, you'll be chasing the cart all over.

[@bradyobrien9]

@@europeanian4205 Exactly the issue I have with my OldTown PDL and my existing cart.

[@petecampa]

​@europeanian4205 I made the mistake in buying the tow n stow bunkster, to much work to try and load my kayak...

[@fishlikethis82]

Perfect solution for my SS127

[@jborselli15]

Just got the c tug R, thing is a piece of junk. I put the hobie outback on it and it feels like it is going to fall apart. The bunks are set to the appropriate width but when you put the kayak on the cart they come loose. I’m going to return and buy this cart

[@jspyrogram]

So….you get in the water and remove? Then when you’re done kayaking you get down under the water to put back under?

[@petecampa]

I bought it for my 2019 Native Titan 12... I could not get to center properly... too much work involved trying to load and unload my kayak... I'll stick to my Boondox landing gear... it's for sale now... it's the Tow n Stow Bunksyer...

[@shawnnoname9291]

Just got mine today. Alot heavier than it looks. But it's very HD

[@SuddleT]

Great rundown. Seems like you get quite a bit more than what the wilderness cart offers for just 30 extra dollars

[@XploreAz]

I don’t really see that it offers a whole lot more than the Wilderness cart other than it comes with kick stands.

[@bradyobrien9]

@@XploreAz Do you have issues with the Wilderness on steep inclines (think concrete boat launches). My current cart wants to roll down the hill as I'm putting the yak on the cart. I'm deciding between the Wilderness and this Yak Attack.

[@thechunkyhen]

​@@bradyobrien9I use the wilderness cart and added a kickstand to mine for easier loading. Pro tip, use your paddle and put it behind the cart wheels to avoid the cart from rolling down the boat ramp.

[@standingmannequin7911]

Looking for one where I don't need to get waist deep in the water to prep before going back on land. Especially On the ocean it can be brutal. Narrow plastic tires are the worst on sand and noisy on pavement. So far it seems no one has made one to address this, not even close.

[@JohnLong02245]

What about a fully loaded kayak particularly with the motor, battery and crate etc.? What is the max capacity?

[@amorton94]

Let me google that for you.... "Weight Capacity - Flat surface rating: 450 lbs, Trail rating: 300 lbs, 5 inch drop rating: 200 lbs."

[@suchgr8hieghts]

@@amorton94 lmao its really not that hard to use google

[@amorton94]

@@suchgr8hieghts That's my entire point, he could have googled it himself. 🤡

[@amorton94]

Ease of carting my 100+ pound kayak is ultimately what keeps me from taking it out at all. It's been 3 years since I've fished from a kayak. Hanging the kayak from the ceiling of my garage doesn't help any. Though I'm sure that this cart, like Boonedox Landing Gear, is expensive enough to keep me from buying it. Anyone in CO wanna buy a kayak? 😅

[@SRH420ful]

geez my bar cart is also 450 lbs capacity all stainless steel wider wheels and 79 bucks yours is disgustingly expensive and made of plastic where's the logic?

[@ninjazxd]

Is it just me or are the top rails bowed?

[@RubiconJoey]

That was an early prototype where tolerances weren't dialed in so the rails didn't fit tightly in their sockets. New ones will have the top rails actually slightly bowed up. This helps with making sure the rubber bunk pads make contact with the hull.

[@stratos175escape7]

GO DAWGS!!!!!!!

[@chrisfreeman6540]

Looks like they knocked out of the park again

[@flipflopfishingAZ]

No thanks. Way too big, over-engineered, and I'm guessing over-priced.

[@YakJones]

Wayyyy to much to stow. I have had Boonedox landing gear on 4 of my kayaks and would never take all this mess on my kayak. Kinda crazy to think anyone would even thing this is ok to make?

[@mdillon0920]

Stick with my Ctug.

[@europeanian4205]

I absolutely hate the ctug. Lol

[@mikefurness1598]

I have a C-tug with tractor wheels. First time it broke was 3 months after I got it. One wheel dropped into a shallow 3" hole in the launch parking lot. Broke the support/connecting plastic on one wheel axle. That was the KBF National Championship at Guntersville 2020. I repaired it with 2 part epoxy and it held until yesterday when it broke again, same place. I run an Old Town Big Water 132 PDL loaded it probably weighs 200 to 250 pounds with all my gear. Going to Mountain Road Trading Post this morning to look at and probably buy the Yak Attack cart. I'm done with the c-tug.

[@mclaren6944]

My man love your videos but time to take care of your health. That keg needs to get reduced ….

[@Flukemaster]

Thanks man. I'm working on it. Just doing it the slow, healthy way this time. I'm down almost 10 pounds in the past month.
