Anyone tried using a muti wheel PWC Beach cart? My Brothernlaw is trying to sell a 6 wheel roll-ezz Beach cart/trailer and I have been tempted to buy it since I don't have beach wheels...the things go for $1000 and he only asking $500...almost new...what do you think?

Regrds,
Bob

How hard is it getting the boat on and off the cart? Pictures?

for $500 I think you'd be happier with CatTrax.

For $500 it's almost a toss up.

For $1000, Cat Traxs!!

I dunno ... looking at the pics, I'd say there are some additional costs to make the PWC wheels compatible for a cat'

Would there be more drag from more wheels, or less because it doesn't sink in. All those wheels make me think it would be harder to move around. Especially turning. The right platform and it would be really stable though.


I'm boatless.

I would think it would roll much easier than plain Cat trax...I mean we moved his 950# Seadoo around with this thing very easily...I am always looking for multi-purpose too...I could use this for our Kayaks and any other gear we wanted to move...

Regards,
Bob

You should investigate further. You may find that the 6 wheels alone are worth more than 500$ and could make 3 sets of good cat haulers?

IMO the rims on roleeze wheels don't last very long.
I'm still too cheap to buy new cat trax for 500$ so I am going bvining's route. They might be a problem with a 400lb boat though.

All I can tell you is I bought a set of used cat-trax about 12 years ago and all I've had to do is add air once and a while. I use them almost every weekend to move my Mystere 6.0 (around 380lbs.) Cradles are a must. A no brainer even at full price.
