Launch wheels

[morgan968]

Hi everyone,

On my new xpro 380 it doesn't have any launch wheels, I've been thinking of installing some or maybe buying a folding launch trailer so I wouldn't have to drill into the transom.

Any advise on which is best and if its fitting launch wheels the best way to do it?

Thank you

Morgan

I've got both but I prefer to use the folding trailer. I've found that with the transom wheels if you keep them on the transom they add more weight to back of the boat so I still want to leave them behind. I've also replaced the wheels with non-pneumatic golf trolley ones as I've found that it can be a real bitch at times getting the leg/wheel combo into the down position when on the water.

Ok thank you for that, think I'll look into buying a launch trolley as the boats a bit heavy for one person to pick up!

I wasn't too sure about the transom wheels, especially having to screw into the transom.

Thank you again
