I estimate our dinghy is on the weight limit with its outboard, yet the wheels proved perfectly capable over the season and a variety of surfaces. Sturdy enough to use on any boats up to 3.6m with outboards up to 15hp or a static weight of 120kg, they are also comparatively light at 4kg per pair. I have been a fan of this innovative company’s boating accessories for years but was still pleasantly surprised at how seriously robust they felt on unboxing them. The 10in puncture-free wheels are made using fibreglass reinforced plastic which is UV resistant. I looked at many copies and alternatives before finally coming across this new practical plastic design from Railblaza. But they are not cheap and take time to ship (direct orders only). The gold standard has long been the New Zealand made Beachmaster wheels.
It can make the difference between being able to beach it like a Baywatch pro or getting stranded and cold as the tide ebbs away. A good, durable set of transom dinghy wheels can be transformational for anyone who regularly needs to beach their dinghy.
