Sunfish Dolly

[susanofmoylan]

Hello Sunfish Fans! I write with a question about the easiest way to get my fish from a rack on shore at a yacht club to the water. I'm not exactly a spring chicken anymore, and someone mentioned some sort of dolly that makes it easy for one person to lug a Sunfish to the water. Thanks for any advice you may be able to lend!

I am a attaching a pic on a handmade dolly that I built for about $60.

It is extremely convenient as it allows me to lauch solo without bothering anyone.

You will need a beach dolly similar to the ones available on APS (click on link on this page).

Or you may build it yourself. I have made one with material I bougnt to my local hardware store: ABS pipe, 6 foot pipe for the axle, plastic board, some screws and bolts. As for the wheels, I found old 6 '' snow thrower wheels. I live in Canada in Quebec City!

My trailer doesn't look good but but it does the work.
