I figured out that the wilderness cart with the hard wheels will float just enough that i can slide it under my kayak in the water at the boat ramp and just walk up ramp no straps needed on a 2021 hobie outback

I got the Wilderness HD cart a while ago before all the shutdowns and huge demand and got it for $160 with the sand wheels. I bought the hard wheels for $100. I keep telling people its worth the money and your video shows why. The weight capacity is just so much better also. With these kayaks getting bigger and heavier every year plus all the gear that is going to be really important. Motor, batteries, gear is getting really close to the weight capacity of the Malone. Add in something like crab traps and you are there.

Thank you for the detailed video. We purchased the Old Town 120 Autopilot and have been worrying with the cart. Your review and your detail made it an easy decision to go for the Wilderness Systems unit. Please keep up the the great detail on the use of this wonderful kayak.

Thank you, a lot of energy went into making this video and I appreciate it. I have a bigfish 105 and a pelican 110 Hd2 both with different hull designs and weight.

Definitely like that the Wilderness System cart can be used in many situations without having to use straps

Purchased the C-tug for my Moken 10 and realized it's not a good fit. went to KZread and found your video and you sold me on the Wilderness systems cart. Ordering it now. Looking forward to viewing your videos. Thanks a million.

Great break down and review. I really got good info for my Predator. I think the wilderness is the right choice for me after viewing all of your points of comparisons. Thanks and “Tight Lines” Doc

I love my wildernesses system one with the beach wheels is my favorite it works great on the beach and never slips

Wilderness it is! this will be my 3rd and hopefully final cart for my Sportman 120 PDL...I'm tired of it rubbing on the wheels. thanks for the deep dive on these two!

Wow! Excellent review and analysis! Very very informative and helpful. Thanks for sharing.

I just bought the Malone a month ago and I have found the same issue with my PDL 120. I have to put it closer to the aft end and it makes transporting the kayak a real chore. It just can't seem to find a good balance up near the seat. Great video. 👍

Very thorough reviews. Thank you

Outstanding video review. Thanks for posting. 👍👍

Man I really appreciate you doing this video. I had the malone Scupper whole cart for my kayak but my wife has a sit inside kayak so I'm looking for a cart for her kayak. Both them are good and I can't decide which one I want to get. You did a very very good demonstration with the carts. I appreciate you demonstrated how well the Chaco sandals would hold up. I really really would like to get me a pair of Chaco sandals but they were not fit my foot because of my foot being very very extremely wide. I tried them on the in store but the straps will not adjust wide enough for a foot that is 6 1/2 inches wide. I have very very fat wide toe there are equally straight across and if my toes were at a 45° angle like everybody else's toes I think my foot would fit in the sandals even with me having fat wide toes. It really sucks having a very very extremely wide foot with toes that are straight across. This was a very good video with important information. Thank you for making this and sharing it.

Great comparison and really helped me decide what way to go. Thank you.

Very good review of between the two. the wilderness is the clear winner since I also have more then one kayak hull style.

Very informative and helpful! Thank you!

another video shows the Wilderness system cart does fit in the 120pdl. Don't put the wheels in first.

I have a PA 14, which is heavy just as your 120 auto pilot. I watched some videos of various carts and said "nuts" (or something a bit more graphic) and went with the Boondox. No lifting, no straps, no poking the wheels into scupper holes. I set them up as I am taking the kayak off the trailer and lift and lock them into place once in the water. getting out of the water is just a reversal. And yes, they are clearly more expensive.

It is super nice. Plus once you have the beach wheels on there you can kind of just leave them on; they go over basically everything.

I have the old town predator PDL and I almost bought the wilderness... I bought the c-tug instead because I wanted to be able to put it in the front hatch easily. It can be a pain to get it on there right without buckling or sliding around until I figured out to just put the straps through the handles now it works great. But I bought it with a sand tracks wheels and they suck on pavement and trying to pull it uphill. I just bought the hard tires but I haven't tested them out yet hopefully it rolls easier 😬

Thanks for the post. Just got the 106 and the c-tug with hard tires before watching this video. Been too busy to see how they work and after seeing this video thought I may have messed up not going with the wilderness. Thanks for the tip on the straps thru the handles. Based on the c-tug pads and the bottom of these hulls I wasn't sure if it would even work.

I own the Wilderness cart. I like the fact that the bunks are longer and foam padded for a more balanced feel and little movement forward and back the length of the kayak (more foam to grip the body of the kayak) I have yet to need my straps, but still have them available. Could you cut off an inch or so on each end of the Wilderness bunks to fit in the storage area? Or put the bunks in first and then the wheels? I just secure mine on top because of the assembly / disassembly time or I leave it in the vehicle.

Navarre Kayak Fishing has risers for the Wilderness Systems cart if you need more clearance from the wheels. I believe that there are clearance issues with the balloon tires and the Old Town Autopilot. My next cart will be the Wilderness Systems cart. I currently have a Malone Tracker Deluxe w/wide track wheels, it's ok, but I think things could be better especially for the price.

I've had the wilderness systems cart for a year for my pro angler 12 and with all of my junk on it the yak likely weighs upwards of 140-150# (downrigger and downrigger ball, rods, tackle, seat, net, drive, etc.) and the only flaw I've found with it is that it seems to slide quite a bit on some really steep gravel ramps after I take my yak out of the water and it's wet. I don't strap it (because I'm lazy and if it's busy I don't want to tie the ramp up for too long) and that's when it slides on me. Otherwise it's a great cart. Thanks for the video.

It really all depends on what kayak you have and how the keel is designed.

I just ordered the wilderness HD five minutes ago because of your video so thank you however, at 20:40 after you removed the first wheel, why not try this method in order to speed disassembly… 1. After removing the wheel, Instead of inserting the ring pin which holds the wheel, just lay it to the side for a moment. 2. Then remove the other pin which allows the axle to be extended and lay it to the side too. 3. Loosen the four wing nuts (but only slightly not removing them from the bolts) that adjust the spacing of the verticals 4. slide both of the verticals off the shaft 5. Replace both pens for safekeeping That would eliminate The time taken to completely remove the four wing nuts and pull those two Black clamps apart. I don’t know how much time that would save but I’m thinking maybe two minutes removal and two minutes reassembling?? Mine Arrives in 2 days so I’ll be able to try this to see how it works Thank you for the video, very good.
