Not that I'm asking to borrow it , but just curious if anyone is going to carry a cart for their CP3 portage?

I figure I'll unpack and carry an 'empty' boat over. I find one or two of the IKEA carry bags very useful for this.

I'll have one, but I fully expect you to be far in front of me

+1 I'll have one too. If you are in the area when I come in(if I come in) you are more than welcome to use it.

We'll have one for our 23 foot long tandem kayak, and you or anyone else can use it assuming that we make it there in one piece, within the given time limit and still have our sanity. -forgert the sanity part. We lost that when we decided to enter this event

Remember that only WaterTribers who are actually in the event can load equipment or help with the portage at Flamingo. It is part of the challenge. You can avoid it if you want by going around and entering the CP from the outside. Otherwise enjoy the short walk.

Last year I carried a set of wheels that just tied on at the stern. I wouldn't do that for a long portage, but it worked well at Flamingo.

I should have my C-Tug, but I imagine you will be at least a day ahead of me Kristen.

I am awaiting a set of the plastic C-Tug wheels since I have had trouble with the orignial tubes leaking.

I also bought some new IKEA bags while in Ohio the other week. They have a zipper along the top and one end.

Get ya some IKEA bags with the zipper. I have paddling gear in one right now in my truck. I can get the Item # alter tonight.
