  • Center boat cart designed for canoes or kayaks up to 250 pounds
  • Makes it easy to transport boats to the water's edge

Love paddling in your local river, but hate lugging the canoe or kayak from your car to the water? Turn to the Paddleboy Nemo cart, which makes it a breeze for one person to tote boats as heavy as 250 pounds. Mimicking the Paddleboy Heavy Lifter cart in design and type of tire but built to carry less weight, the Nemo is a center cart, meaning it sits under the middle of your boat while you pull it from one end.


The Nemo cart pulls canoes or kayaks as heavy as 400 pounds.
This allows the cart to manage most of the load, so you can tote heavier crafts without requiring assistance from a second person. In addition, the Nemo's 10-by-4-inch pneumatic tires detach easily thanks to the quick-release wheel system. Just push the button and the wheels slide right off--no cotter pins, no hassles. And users will love the Nemo's double-leg kickstand, which steadies the cart for easy loading and unloading.

Other features include a powder-coated aluminum frame with a hammertone finish, an axle-free design, and a collapsible frame that conveniently disassembles into four pieces without tools. The Nemo measures 20 by 11 inches (W x H), weighs 8 pounds, and carries a one-year warranty. Paddleboy also sells a line of end carts, which manage less weight but are easier and quicker to load.

About Paddleboy
The very first Paddleboy cart was born out of pure selfish concern. In 1995, dedicated paddler Brian Witt struggled to transport his canoes and kayaks across the park and down to the water. As any paddler without a cart knows, this kind of lugging uses energy that should be reserved for paddling. Witt knew there had to be a better way, so he designed a prototype cart that became the essence of every canoe and kayak enthusiast's dream: less lugging and more paddling. Today, Paddleboy Designs--located in Seattle, Washington--is the only watercraft cart manufacturer to offer both end and center carts, as well as one of the most supportive, competent dealer networks in the country. The Nemo, built with an aluminum frame, carries up to 250 pounds. Like the Heavy Lifter, a double-leg kickstand folds out to steady the cart for loading. Easy to store, the Nemo breaks down into 4 parts for convenient hatch storage. The new Quick-Release Wheel System allows for quick, easy mounting and dismounting of wheels without the need for keeper pins.
