Some of you know I've been using a couple of poor man dollies I made for about $100.00 until I get a trailer next summer. They actually work pretty good. Here's a youtube video bringing the inflatable up out of the water. I guess I'm pushing around about 450 pounds (including the dollies). I float the dollies out, push them under, and lash them down to boat with wide webbing.

I also included a couple other video's of "Pack Rat" screaming by the Split Rock Lighthouse and coming in on the backside of Pellet Island where we were entertained by a little baby sea gull cliff diving. My Grand daughter named him "Scooter."

You should upload a video to see how much time it takes to place floating dollies under sib and strap them to tubes, by the way, did a diver installed the poor man's dollies under water for you to pull neatly on that boat ramp :D

Happy Boating
