Works Great

Wait until the first time you use it YOU will be Amazed !!

Which Hds5 did you get ?

I got the HDS5 Base Combo model Because I am going to put in the Navionics Ocean Platnium Chip , its on my Xmas list IF you got the HDS5 Nautic Combo it has Xcellent Maping of our coast GOOD call either way.

Well I got my Bait tank Done with rod holders AND the Kayak kart is now done. So im almost ready for LJ Tight Lines and Watch out for Whales and Pesky Seals !!!!

Sorry no pics of Kayak Cart but i made it out of 1 1/2 sch 40 pvc, 6 tees and 2 caps, 1 36" piece of all thread 1/2" , and 2 Power Wheels that a really nice Guy from BWE sold me ( They WORKED Perfect BTW )

It is very lite, about 21" wide at top that kayak sits on which fit into the like tri hull areas of the bottom. 1 strap and i'm rollin....

Also the wheel spread is about 26" on the inside and if you add the tire width which is 7 3/4 that is how wide it is , Very stable

OH YES for the axel i Glued 2 tees apart about 20" then glued on the 2 caps , then i drilled the holes in the caps to 1/2 " slid in axel 2 Nylock nuts and axel is solid put on Power Wheels then 2 Nylock nuts DONE
Rolls Great Painted it, strapped it to Kayak and Proceded to Baja around my property works great and with wide tires i think it will go through deep sand easily

Hope this helps i'm not that computer literate to post pics mabee some day Bob..............................
