![]() "Carlos Bill" wrote in message om... Just wondering if anyone has tried or would know where to begin searching for a way to permanently place wheels on a canoe to make it easier to transport. I know they make canoe carriers with wheels but having them permantly attached would be much easier for many reasons. The wheels would have to sit high when you are on the water & would raise the center of gravity. Stability would be affected & you'd still find it awkward to load. I have an Old Town Discovery 174 that weighs 82lbs. It's impossible to get onto my roof rack alone. Having wheels attached to one of the ends of the canoe on the top would allow me to flip it over, pick up the other end and roll it. A much simpler way would be to replace the Discovery with a much lighter canoe that you can lift. Problem is, the lighter the canoe, the higher the price. Lloyd Bowles www.madcanoeist.4ever.cc |
