The YAK-KAT
Kayak Catty is a reliable tool for transporting kayaks. Manufactured to comply with ALL models and styles of "sit
on top" kayaks, the Yak-Kat's performance is unparalleled.
The Yak-Kat is manufactured
using both 600 psi and 300 psi PVC for weight and durability. The wheels are 14" solid rubber, and joined by a
totally encapsulated steel axle. The Yak-Kat supports the kayak at FOUR
rubber bearing surfaces. The Yak-Kat also includes two scupper rod bearings for use with kayaks having large scupper
holes.
|
Engineered to work with all makes and models,
the Yak-Kat employs a unique design which eliminates the need for straps or tie downs. With the kayak sitting on the
FOUR rubber supports, two scupper rods extend through the scupper holes of the kayak and into the scupper rod retention bearing.
As the kayak is being pulled, the scupper rods lock into the kayak scupper holes, and the retention beatings. This
scupper rod locking method eliminates the need for carry straps or tie downs.
|
|
Another unique feature of the Yak-Kat is
its ability to service all makes and models of kayaks. The Yak-Kat's design enables the user to adjust the kayak supports
to align with the scupper holes of any model kayak. NOTE in the picture, one set of kayak supports extend to the wheel
base, the other towards the center line. The supports float along the axle, but once positioned and locked to the kayak,
do not move.
|
|
Loading the kayak onto the Yak-Kat is a
simple procedure. With the Yak-Kat on the ground, supports down, center the kayak over the wheels and role the kayak
into place. Once the Yak-Kat axle is visible between the scupper holes lift one side of the kayak, position the support,
and insert the scupper rod then move to the other side and do likewise.
|
|
As stated, once the kayak
has been loaded and the scupper rods put in place, the kayak is locked in place and ready for transport. NOTE the
Yak-Kat utilizes 14" solid rubber wheels which are impervious to flats. The larger wheels greatly improves stability,
reduces drag making it easier to pull, and aids in climbing stairs for beach access.

The
SANDIGER positions beach umbrellas in soft or hard sand, and holds tight even in the wind that
accompanies beach life.
|
Manufactured with NON RUSTING,
abrasion resistant, flexible, and shock absorbing PVC, the SANDIGER can be easily positioned using the T-HANDLE to cut through
the sand in a rotating motion, or tapped into the sand using the TAP-CAP.
The
unique 65 degree cutting angle of the SANDIGER cuts through the most resistant sand in less then a minute. Unlike
comparable umbrella stands that use an augur style digging device, the SANDIGER cuts and extracts a sand core.
This allows the SANDIGER to penetrate the beach by ONE FOOT or more.
|
|
|
Once the SANDIGER has been
positioned into the sand, the T-HANDLE and TAP-CAP removed, and the sand core extracted, the beach umbrella is inserted into
the hollow tube of the SANDIGER, and clamped into position using the thumb screw retention device.
|
|
|
Because of the insertion
depth into the sand, the flexibility of the PVC, and the umbrella locking mechanism, the SANDIGER can resist strong winds.
Additionally, if your beach umbrella is not equipped with a tilting device, the SANDIGER can be inserted into the sand
at an angular position accommodating the early and late sun.
|
|
|
The SANDIGER provides an
effective, reliable, and light weight alternative for supporting beach umbrellas. Other uses of the SANDIGER
include supporting beach fishing rods, supporting custom beverage tables, digging holes for larger beach coverings or volley
ball nets, and anything that may require using a hole in the sand.
