Kathy, You can rent gas powered carts that will not run down. They also have enough power to pull a run down electric cart - I know we pulled one about a mile or more on the north side to the ferry. We used the chain/cable locks from each one to hook them up. The gas powered carts are great, just ask around to find who rents the gas carts. I rented ours across froms Lilly's.
You can go as far as Journey's End by road, after that your on the beach - which crosses property that may be somewhat private.

IMHO, from a noise pollution standpoint, the gas-powered carts are indistinguishable from the mitsubishi vans (taxis), tanker trucks (suppressing street dust), and assorted small pick-up trucks.
from a reliability standpoint, the gas-powered carts are unequalled, as I saw (and picked up) several people huffing it with dead batteries.
gas, yeah baby.................
If you must choose between two evils, pick the one you've never tried before.

If it means the difference between riding or pushing the cart, I'll take the gas over electric any day. Just ask the family of four that we pulled to the ferry - on that hot/humid day. I don't think they were bothered by the gas motor as we pulled them along. I asked them how far they had come like that and they said it went down on them at Capt. Morgan's -about 2 miles back. We saw them later that day and they were so grateful for our help. The Shark
