For a short trip from garage to lagoon and back (i.e., the put-in is the
take-out are the same spot so that the cart stays on shore until you come
back), you can make a truly superior (and equally truly weird looking) cart
out of a two-wheeled wheelbarrow. Replace 4 of the bolts holding the load
body to the frame with eye-bolts. Get few pieces of hot water pipe
insulation (a longitudinally split foam tube) and glue them on the edges of
the load bed. Toss the kayak/canoe on top of the load bed and bungee it down
using the eye bolts.

a discarded 2-wheel golf bag cart is another possibility. I made a garden cart
out of one. Sliced a 55 gal plastic drum in half and bolted it on after
disassembling the cart and flipping the frame upside down. It rides high
which is good in tall grass, and you don't have to bend down to use it.
worth keeping a lookout for one of these being tossed out.
