I made a dolly which works extremely well for a folder. I used 2 12" "noodles" cut in half and glued to some scrap wood. The edge of the wood is about 6 inches apart and the keel drops in perfectly. The axle and 2 plastic wheels run perpendicular to the noodles. cya -----Original Message----- From: owner-paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net [mailto:owner-paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net] On Behalf Of Kenneth Cooperstein Sent: Saturday, February 13, 1999 5:51 PM To: paddlewise paddlewise Subject: [Paddlewise] New stowable kayak dollies for folders? A new Northwest Outdoor catalog arrived today and shows two interesting stowable kayak dollies, the Midwheels and the Stern Wheels. They can also be seen at: htp://www.nwoc.com Both would seem to be suitable for folders. Anyone who has tried the Kayak Kaddy on his skin boat probably knows that the little "v" finds no support above the keel and the whole thing gets gets hopelessly skewed. Other stowables have similar problems. The Stern Wheels, however, has "v" arms 8" long that should reach to a longeron for needed support. Similarly, the Midwheels ought to also find support at several longerons and also work well. Because the picture of the Midwheels is a little dark, I have asked for a larger drawing to be mailed to me. Once it comes, I can fax it around.
