I'm selling one of my beach totes that I haven't used in a while. I bought it brand new back in 1995, and used it back when I had my condo in Waterford, where we had our own private paved boat launch. It was ideal for comfortably walking my ski from my garage to the launch. It's still in good shape, and I replaced the wheel bearings years ago after I used it in salt water one October in the late 90s, but forgot to rinse it when I got back home.
If anyone remembers, it was the tote I used at PP back in 2007. Craig teased me when I used it to walk my SJ from the camping area (which was a couple hundred yards from the beach) to the beach and back, but it really wasn't too difficult. I also had it in the campfire area that year, as I was "repairing" my destroyed pump shoe with parts from TSC and epoxy putty - that was fun :)...
I don't have pics right now, but can take some if needed. It's basically a simple axle with small tractor tires, connected to a curved frame with a tee handle to grab on to and a bow pin to secure the ski. It holds SJs, FX1s, and non-800 kawis perfectly. Never tried to use it with an SXR, but it may work, the balance may just be off a bit. It easily breaks down into a couple small pieces for easy transport/storage.
Because the wheels are small, it does not float at all, so it's easy for one person to load/unload it in the water - but it's not great for rolling across sand. I've done it by myself quite a few times, and it's a workout for sure. $100 gets it.
