Wheels for pontoon?

[Jeff F]

I've got a Fish Cat Streamer IR pontoon. I hate dragging that thing across parking lots, gravel, dirt, etc to get to the river.

Anyone ever jerry-rig some sort of wheel(s) for the back end (deck) on their pontoon? I'm thinking I could find the needed materials at Home Depot or something, but just looking for ideas. Just something very simple that I could strap on the deck and get it off the ground.

Thanks all!

Jeff- I sent you an email via the email option on this board. I have pdf file of drawing of a dolly I used on a 9ft frameless. Dolly is made of 1-1/4" Sch 40 PVC and PVC fittings- with 10" dia Harbor Freight wheels. - breaks down for storage, or makes a good rear deck rack while on the water.

Board has limit of 19K for pdf file as attachment, so I cannot attach it to my post.

I don't have pics--- I sold the 9ft frameless 2 yrs ago and only did a drawing and wrote a description for Jeff's post.

If anyone wants the pdf of what I have, PM me and give me your email address.

It is a rectangular pvc pipe frame using T's and 90* pvc fittings (1ft by width of your boat) with 2 pvc pipe legs with wheels attached... and is strapped onto the bottom of the raft/pontoon.... use a strap on front of the boat to lift and pull the entire boat...

It would work well on a 12ft raft or cat.

4 emails sent with my drawing and instructions. .... IF you do build one, post some pics please. From all the responses I received, this is a real need and others would really benefit by pics....

I just beat up a ten year old kid, stole the front fork off his bike, welded up a bracket, and bolted it on.

That is all.
