I have an 8 foot pram tender and would like to fit a set of wheels at the transom
to make slipway handling easier. I believe wheel kits may be available.
Information please.

Re: Got to make some

I will be making some maybe this week, I looked at some on a tender at Wells Next Sea today.
It is quite simple just need to set the angle correctely , so why pay out lots when you can do it your self .
Plenty of places to get 5"" wheels from you could even do it with out welding .
I'l take some pics of the kit I make for mine and bung it on my web site .
Cheers
Mick

I made a launching trolley for my dingy by putting a bit of wooden frame on a two wheel shopping trolley and a long pole down the centre for a handle. Works well, I leave it under the dingy when not in use and at the bank side when I'm using the dingy. No self-respecting thief would touch it!!!
