Why not just use beachcat wheels?

Are they street legal? If so, do you have a link?

Aside from your design ideas, you do realize that you're proposing a 16'
tender for a 32' boat....

This tender is never intended to leave the harbor. We would have another
dinghy to take with us.

What about a catamaran type dinghy? It could dismantle into three or four
pieces light enough to carry in a mini-van/station wagon but be stable
enough to stand
up on.

Here in WA you would have to register the tender both as a motor boat and a
trailer. Never heard of it being done, but I'm sure the state would love to
work with you on it.

I expect it will be the same here and the boat will have to have brake
lights and a license plate.

Interesting idea but in the end I think you'll be happier with a hard
bottom inflatable (perhaps with beach wheels), and a lightweight
trailer.
