The carts we’ve selected can handle a variety of terrains, are designed for hassle-free pulling — even after an exhausting day on the water, and should stand up to years of constant use.

Top 10 2 Person Kayaks

10. Seattle Sports ATC

If you’re into all kinds of water activities, the Seattle Sports ATC can handle just about any craft you throw at (or on) it, from paddleboats to dinghies to canoes. It keeps vessels nice and high, so you shouldn’t have any issues with ground clearance.

9. Hobie Heavy Duty

Despite the name, the Hobie Heavy Duty actually has a relatively low weight capacity of 150 pounds, so it isn’t suitable for heavy craft. That being said, it is quite well-made and should last through years of use with lighter vessels without any of the components failing.

8. Best Choice Products SKY1251

While the foam tires of the Best Choice Products SKY1251 don’t offer the smoothest rolling experience when on bumpy ground, its low-price and stability more than make up for that. If you are buying a couple of units for the family, it’s a smart choice.

7. Malone Xpress

The Malone Xpress has a thick, removable foam pad that sits under the center of the hull to protect it during transport. Its two poles fit inside your scupper holes, so there’s no need to wrestle with straps, and it’s pretty easy to store on your craft after launching.

6. Apex KC-Dolly-Seat

If you want a model that will add some versatility to your day at the beach, the Apex KC-Dolly-Seat also doubles as a chair, so you can sit and relax after you’re done paddling around. It has a 250-pound weight capacity for accommodating heavy vessels and users.

5. PaddleLogic TrailTrekker

The PaddleLogic TrailTrekker is a lightweight construction that, when disassembled, fits easily in your car or garage without taking up a ton of space. It also floats, so you don’t have to worry about losing it if it goes overboard accidentally.

4. Suspenz Smart DLX

The Suspenz Smart DLX has airless tires that will never go flat and can handle fully-loaded craft easily. The powder-coated aluminum frame resists saltwater corrosion, and the included straps are long enough to secure even the widest of personal boats.

3. Malone Clipper Deluxe

The Malone Clipper Deluxe is designed to hold nearly every type of kayak or canoe, and has a strong frame with lots of padding to protect the hull when you go over curbs. It also includes a locking kickstand to keep it stable as you load it.

2. TMS KY001

You’d be hard pressed to find a better budget model than the TMS KY001. It has a sturdy frame and oversized pneumatic tires, which give it a smooth ride on rough terrain, and enable it to accommodate fairly large watercraft.

1. C-Tug Trolley

The C-Tug Trolley comes with solid, puncture-free wheels, so even rocks and spiky brush won’t keep you from getting your vessel to the water. It’s made of composite materials, meaning you don’t have to worry about rusting if it gets wet while launching.
