YakAttack - TowNStow Bunkster Kayak Cart with Sand Tires

Now available in sand tires—the perfect companion for coastal launches and beach paddling. The TowNStow Bunkster Kayak Cart is engineered from UV-resistant, injection-molded polymers and anodized aluminum, built to withstand salt spray and sandy environments. Its bunk-style uprights run parallel to your kayak's hull, accommodating most modern designs. Six adjustable positions span 6.25" to 16" wide, letting you dial in the perfect fit for your vessel's beam and rocker line. Reposition uprights along the axle in seconds—no tools required. Sand tires excel on soft surfaces from boat ramps to dunes, with sealed hubs that keep grit and salt corrosion at bay. Snap them off with a button press; they're interchangeable with hard-surface options. Integrated tie-down points secure your kayak with 1" cam straps (sold separately). Four grippy rubber bumpers protect your hull's underside, and dual kickstands lock the cart stable while you prep. The entire frame disassembles without tools—wheels, uprights, and axle pack into most kayak hatches, leaving theft and weather concerns behind at the ramp.

Tie-Downs and Bunk Pads

Securing a kayak to the Bunkster with straps can be different for every model of kayak, so like the TowNStow BarCart, the Bunkster has an integrated tie-down point located at the center of the axle. The tie-down point is designed for 1” flat webbing cam straps (not included), but you can also use rope with less than 5/16” diameter. One distinct difference you will find from the BeadLoc, hard surface tires is the Sand Tires do not feature the integrated tie down point on the end on the wheel hub. For added grip on the underside of your kayak, the Bunkster includes four super “grippy” rubber bumpers. For long-term durability, we opted for designing snap-on rubber bumpers instead of common foam.

Wheels

Included are two air-filled balloon tires mounted on an injection molded two-piece wheel. The air-filled tires are optimized for various soft surfaces including sand and mud, and yes, they are YakAttack Orange. The wheels feature sealed hubs to keep out sand and grit. Like the BeadLoc wheels, they easily snap in place and are removed by a push of a button, and are interchangeable.

Storage and Components

Many anglers set up their kayaks in the boat ramp parking lot and then cart them to water’s edge, but taking the cart back to their vehicle is not always an option. Doing so leaves your kayak and gear unattended and susceptible to theft. The Bunkster was designed to disassemble completely and without the need for tools. The wheels remove by depressing the button behind the hub on the axle and can be done in seconds. The fixed uprights remove by lifting the orange position detent lever and sliding them off the axle. Everything minus the centralized tie-down point can be removed from the aluminum axle, leaving you with five parts that can be stored in most hatches.

The Bunkster comes with two kickstands, configured with one on each side to optimize and support the loading angle for both sides of the cart. When not in use, the beefy kickstands snap in place, locked out of the way.
