I carry the Revo in the back of my truck. Upon arrival, I pulled it far enough back, past the tailgate, so I could insert the Fold and Stow in the scuppers. As soon as I slid the kayak back a foot or so, the cart fell out. The ball comes right out of the recess, and the cart falls. At the dealer, he told me that the beauty of the supper cart, you can insert it, pull the 'yak out and set the stern on the ground, the wheels will make contact, lift the bow off, and be on your way. Then, when retrieving, have the cart inserted in the scuppers, wheel it to the truck, lift the bow on the tailgate, go to the stern, pick up the stern and slide the boat into the bed of the truck. It would be the same thing if I used a bed extension. As far as putting the cart in when back to shore, I am not carrying a lot of stuff. Just a small crate, and the drive. I lift out the crate, lay the drive on the crate, grab the side handle, tip the boat on it's side, put the cart in, put it on it's wheels, lay the drive and the crate back in the boat, and again, on my way. I could see an issue with a PA, they are actually small boats. The Revo is basically a sit on kayak. Just disappointed that the smallest movement causes the ball to go back to the top of the vertical,, causing the cart to fall out.
