Question Small jon boat carrier

BIG E · 08-10-2009, 12:04 PM

Would like to haul a 10 ft. Jon boat about a 3 mile hike ( Walk in only )to the pond. Need ideas on a trailer/carrier set up. Something light that 2 people could use to haul with. Thanks

Make a bracket on the transom to mount wheels to it and one person can pull it along, upside down. A pair of lawnmower or old tricycle wheels would work.

Thanks for the tip! Like the tricycle tire idea. Thinking about using bicycle size for more height off the ground. Native grass is pretty high.
