My punt, which I decked over to make it safer against powerboat wakes, comes in close to 100 pounds. It is caroppable, but barely. Getting it atop my ancient landrover took some ingenuity and a rotating bracket made for kayaks.

I heft the stern up onto the bracket then strap it down. I can then grab the bow, lift it more easily now that it is not fighting me about rotating, and swing it up over the roof of my landy and onto the rack. I have not dropped it yet, but I have come close.

Well, just plain tedious work. But, no doubt adds great strength over long haul. At least, you won't notice the weight once it's waterborne...
