I've been looking for stand for ages but begrudge paying daft 'boat' money for what is essentially a few bent bits of steel or aluminium if you upmarket.....
I found a 'homebase sack truck' in the basement at work which had been bought before it was realised it wont shift full filing cabinets, so abandoned.
Some 5 minutes, a bit of chin scratching, 4 screws and 2 odd offcuts from the garage later has given me an OK stand for the garage for my 25. !!!
Even if I'd paid it would be about £17 cost.
I'd not go bigger than the 47kg Ish the 25 is and its not going to be thrashed ( can you thrash an outboard stand ? )
I've been meaning to swap the wheels out for something larger, but as I only use it in the garage, and just outside on the drive they've been OK.
The removeable planks of wood are there to hold a bin at the right height to run the engine in water.
I could be persuaded to build one or two I suppose
But would need to cost them first.

Peoples thoughts ......
I need a stand at the moment, will it take an Opti 200?
