#11855, "Kickboat Carts"


          

This is a link to some small boat dollies. They're a little pricey but it might give a general idea on how to make one.

Yeah, that's *close* to my vision of an ideal cart. I doubt these are quite wide enough for a kickboat, though. That'd have to be dialed in within a pretty close tolerance, I'd imagine, to accomodate the pontoons adequately.

Again, this one would possibly do, but with some alterations still required.

Someday, we'll get there! (Thanks for the info).

I told the guy I'd be willing to work with him toward a more ideal match to our particular type of craft. It doesn't look like it would take much of a mod to his basic "RD-2" design to accomodate the unique configuration of our kickboats, varied in dimensions as they may be.

I'll let you know how (or *if*) he responds! Hopefully, it'd be at a reasonable price, although what he's asking for for the existing models ain't exactly cheap! I'd be willing to consider it, though, if the design were tailored well enough to my needs.


I can always go back to Steve's golf-cart-mod design, if necessary!
