    I have a set of wheels. Go to wheelez.com They aren't cheap but if you're handy, ya might be able to make your own. You definitly want to have the wider tires. I'm not handy so I had to buy mine.

    I have the wheeleez, but I can also usually find someone else to lift the other end and help me get it to water's edge.

    I need wheels but now I just carry it to the water, it's about three trips to get the yak and dive gear to the water. If I could find CHEAP fat tires I'd make one, did I mention I'm CHEAP!!!

    I think it's worth it because it's nice to get out of the water, rest and have a drink before heading in.

    have fun, wolf
