Dolly Recommendation to Move 130 lb Boat from Trailer to Water and Around Garage
Question:
Hi, I am a returning customer, a happy one by the way, and I am needing some assistance with a trailer dolly. Heres the situation. I have an inflatable 12 ft boat that weighs 130 lbs. A smith multipurpose aluminum trailer thats designed for inflatables and/or a jet ski. I am searching for a portable dolly to move the boat and trailer from the truck down to the water and in and around my garage. In particular in one location that I fish the boat ramp is closed to vehicles because of damaged and worn asphalt at the waters entry point only. The remaining asphalt is in excellent condition down to the water but the problem is it is not wide enough, by design to back a vehicle down so it is off limits to vehicle traffic. From the parking lot to the water is about 200 ft and on a 3 to 4 degree downslope. As me and my son are hefty 200lb rascals, we can handle the load which by my estimate with the trolling motor and small 35ah battery and fishing gear to be approx. about 350 lbs. I am eyeballing your Maxx Tow that converts for tractor/ATV use as a potential prospect. However you may have a better idea especially for the climb back up the ramp to the truck and parking area. Thanks ahead.
