Good deal on pier cart
My family is coming down for spring break. We've never been to the beach for a week so I am loading up on goodies to help with fishing. I've been shopping for pier carts for a while and found that I wanted balloon tires and they are EXPENSIVE! Anyway I found this one on sale at Cabelas and thought I'd pass it along. I got it in four days and it is built very well. It's 16"x42" on the inside. On sale for 224.99 and shipping was 32.95.
Most of you have probably seen it but newbies like me might just be looking and this ones nice. I'll post a pic later when I get it loaded. Take care, can't wait to meet some of you guys at the pier!

A front swivel tire is a must for me, replace that tee....unless always on the sand then it might not matter

I can't tell where he got his, but this is what it is: RoboCup® is a brand new patented portable caddy that instantly clamps holding two drinks, two fishing poles, tools, gear and personal belongings including phone, GPS, keys, glasses, flashlight and much more.
I've found the front caster wheel to be a pain to have to rely on the Sr. model. Since it is so long it is too easy to balance out and keep it on the two big wheels anytime it is moved.

Academy. TH Marine robocup. The clamp is real strong and it opens wide enough to put on one of the rod holders. It is a double cup holder/rod holder/umbrella holder. I use them on my boat and just gave it a try on the cart and it fit perfect!

I am definitely going to make a front swivel tire for the pier! And maybe even a rear swivel wheel.

Polly tires are good for the beach,but their not made for hard surface.

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
