Abstract: A motorized beach cart includes a storage area mounted atop a chassis having a plurality of axles. A motor having a corresponding hand actuated accelerator arranged on a handle of the beach cart drives one of the axles to propel the beach cart in a forward or backward direction according to a selector switch. A power source such as a battery is coupled to the motor through the accelerator for delivering a desired amount of energy to the motor to propel it in a desired direction and speed. The beach cart may include a solar cell for recharging the power source used to drive the motor.
