I have a 08 outback looking for cart pm or text me what you have 404-987-7284
-
Did you consider building one? I don't know if it's gonna work for outback since outback is heavier but I made one with pvc pipe for my revo 11 and it works great and only cost me $25. I also made two other for my none-hobie kayaks.

They crack the scupper holes, you don't notice, kayak fills with water slowly.....

I hate it when people beat around the bush like that...

The scupper carts are a PITA. Trying to lift up a fully rigged yak and "thread the needle" to attach the wheels at the end of the day when you're dead tired is a recipe for frustration...
Get you some Wheeleez instead. MUCH easier to load and unload.

I think people just dont realize that Hobies are the only kayak's that are actually designed for (their own) scupper carts. They can be a pain to use too, like mentioned previously, but that can be worked around as well. Even though I have both a Hobie Scupper Cart, and a Wheeleeze cart, the Wheeleeze just gets much more use, as it's so easy to use, and rolls a fully loaded kayak over pretty much any terrain.

I own both the large Wheeleez and Hobie heavy duty plug in scupper cart. I use the plug in cart when launching on concrete boat ramps. When returning, I stick it in while my kayak is a few feet in the water. Then just pull my yak out with the cart attached, this especially useful on a heavy AI.
The nice thing about Wheeleez is its good for all terrains. The downside is loading a fully loaded kayak specially after a fishing trip. I take some gear off to make it easier to lift. I open the rear hatch put my hand in the opening and put my other hand on the handle then lift onto the Wheeleez. They are both very useful depending on conditions.

My scupper cart punched holes in my scuppers and caused me to sink out on the Sonoma Coast. I don't care if I have to carry my shit over my head from bnow on, never using a scupper cart again. good luck.

If you are handy you can order just the wheels from wheeleez and fabricate your own cart to however you want it to be. With the price north of $250 for a kayak cart, you might as well build something specific to your needs with stainless fasteners, aluminium conduit, foam padding, and nylon webbing. If I hadn't gotten in on a group buy years ago at a great deal I would have gone in that direction. I do have the single wheel cart for my G2 and its perfect for that kayak where a standard wheeleez kayak cart wouldn't work very well.
Just keep pressure off of the scuppers for the reasons mentioned by others.

As AlsHobieOutback said Hobie's have reinforced scupper openings and are designed to take plug in their carts.
My first post is specific to Hobie kayaks because that's all I own. They had cracking issues in older models and corrected this by reinforcing the outer scupper holes with a plastic sheath. I use the plug in cart for short hauls only. I wouldn't use for it going up and down a hill like at GS.
If I owned another kayak brand I'd use Wheeleez. Overall Wheeleez is the best way to go.

like fishingaddict...I have both the heavy duty scupper cart as well as the wheelez. I like the plug in cart since its faster to load than the wheelez.
I saw this video of how to put the hd cart into the kayak in the water...pretty sweet!!

but like everyone mention, the hobie made a reinforce scupper to prevent damage.
I guess i'll be bringing my wheelez up to GS next week for that long haul up the hill :smt010
