System and method to transport watercraft

An apparatus for transporting a watercraft, the apparatus comprising:

• a first leg and a second leg, wherein each leg comprises a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the first leg and the second leg are attached to a first transport component and a second transport component via respective distal ends;
• a first indexing plate and a second indexing plate which are operatively associated with the proximal ends of respective first leg and the second leg and with the watercraft, wherein each of the first indexing plate and the second indexing plate comprises one or more holes;
• a first pull pin assembly and a second pull pin assembly configured to engage or disengage with respective one or more holes to move the apparatus between a stow position and at least one transport position;
• and
• a cable interconnecting the first pull pin assembly and the second pull pin assembly so that urging the cable simultaneously disengages both first and second pull pin assemblies from the respective first and second indexing plates, whereby the apparatus moves between the stow position and the at least one transport position.
