Show US your Yaks..... - Page 3

I purchased the Roleez cart from Pensacola Kayak & Sail. I have used it to cross the beach twice since I bought it. It has been great - expensive, but I'm glad to have it. I toyed with the idea of building a cart. Many have and I have seen some really good looking carts. Several members of the Gulf Coast Kayak Fishing Association have built carts. In the end, I didn't want to mess with rounding up wheels & other parts separately.

On my first trip into the Gulf off of Pensacola Beach I dragged my kayak across the sand - thought I would collapse on the return trip after fishing for several hours. It still takes some effort to pull a loaded boat across the beach but nothing like without the cart.

beefisher, is that drifter titanium colored ? i love that color, but i'd be scared that no one could see me ! lol

Beefisher · 10-10-2007, 03:26 PM

Titanium it is, but I have a bright green one rigged just like it that is quite visible. I also have a flag to fly if I'm around the weekend crazies or pwc areas. NO! it doesn't have a Pirate on it. I got both drifters on deals so I had no color choice. The Prowler color is my choice, same color as the 55 Chevy I drove in H.S.

Larry,

I had not seen your Prowler since you bought the cooler for the livewell. That turned out very nice. Great work.
