An adaptable landing gear assembly for small watercraft such as kayaks and canoes is described supporting transport of such watercraft from a point on land to a body of water. The assembly includes a cross member to secure the assembly to the watercraft, a pair of positioning brackets, and a pair of wheeled leg assemblies that can rotate between a vertical position to transport watercraft on land and a horizontal position to enable unfettered use of watercraft while floating on water. A position holding pin engages with retaining slots in said position brackets to enable fixed positions of the wheeled leg assemblies with respect to the cross member. A convenient release lever enables operator to release the position holding pin and rotate leg assembly from a first position to a second position.
