The Mk2 Barrow is a legend in its own right — and if you’ve not read about its heritage yet, we recommend starting [here]. But for those already familiar with the trusted Mk2 platform, the Mk2 Fat Boy Power Porter offers a next-level upgrade: compact, powerful, and built for performance without compromise.

Sitting at the more accessible end of the Power Porter range, this model retains the core strength of the Mk2 while delivering the same market-leading drive technology found in our most premium barrows — all in a space-saving, stripped-back frame.

Built on the proven Mk2 frame, the Mk2 Fat Boy Power Porter comes pre-installed with the most powerful electric drive kit available in angling transport. This model is positioned at the entry point of the range not due to performance limitations, but because of its simpler frame design and single-wheel layout.

It doesn’t include additional wheel sets or a clutch mechanism — by design. These changes help reduce weight and cost, while preserving the build quality and reliability Carp Porter is known for.

It’s a perfect solution for anglers who want all the benefits of a Power Porter, without the bulk.

The most consistent praise we hear from customers about this model is how easy it is to transport and store. It’s the most compact Power Porter we offer — ideal for those with limited space or smaller vehicles.

To disassemble:

The entire unit packs down neatly, leaving room for rods, bait, and other essentials. For anglers who regularly balance fishing with work and family life, this flexibility is a game-changer.

The Mk2 Fat Boy Power Porter is ideal for:

If you’ve streamlined your kit to the essentials, or simply prefer travelling light, this barrow supports that mindset. And when the seasons change and you need more gear, the frame is fully expandable — simply extend the side and front bars to carry winter comforts and longer-stay items.

Just because this is a more compact and affordable model doesn’t mean you’re sacrificing performance. In fact, this barrow uses the same motor, drivetrain, battery, controller, and charger as our flagship models, including the Mk8 Power Porter.

Everything you’d expect from a premium Power Porter, just in a leaner frame.

This model excels in venues where space is limited — think overgrown footpaths, tree-lined swims, narrow bridges, and tight car parks.

Its compact footprint and excellent balance make it much easier to control in tight, uneven, or muddy terrain. You get all the torque you need, in a barrow that’s built to slip through the gaps that other barrows can’t.

While the Mk8 and Extreme often grab the headlines, the Mk2 Fat Boy Power Porter quietly delivers serious performance in a lighter, more mobile format. It’s a true workhorse for anglers who value portability and price as much as power and performance.

This model represents one of the best-value motorised barrows on the market — not because it’s basic, but because it’s focused. And when paired with Carp Porter’s attention to detail and legacy of innovation, it becomes an unbeatable solution for anglers who know exactly what they want.
