I've always wanted to canoe down the part of the Black River from the Kayuta Dam to Forestport. A problem however, was how to portage our heavy aluminum canoe from the boat launch to the other side of the dam.
After an extensive search,we found this canoe carrier which seemed promising. Made of lightweight aluminum and weighing only 12 pounds, it was easy to carry it inside the canoe until we needed it.
Although at first we were skeptical as to whether it was big enough to hold our canoe, it did. The straps were easy enough to attach although barely long enough for our wide-bodied canoe. Other people have used bunjee cords instead.
The heavy-duty wheels made it easy to wheel the canoe on any surface. Pulling it uphill wasn't a problem, even for a single person.
This carrier by Pacific Outdoors work great for kayaks too. Click here to order.
