How to install transom wheels to your inflatable boat

Hello everyone! This video comes as a request from some of the viewers, and I finally get the opportunity to show you how it is done. This is the fourth time I get to install transom wheels, and I feel confident enough to make a video of it this time around. Some basic tools you'll need are a drill, basic tool kit, bathroom sealant, a basic drill bit kit, and something to elevated the rear of the boat, I used some cement blocks I had around the backyard and placed a plastic mat so it won't scratch the bottom surface. I'll include some basic tools in the description below.

The large drill bit you used is for brick or masonry. A wood drill bit gives less splinters on the inside and you don't have to push as hard and it will not smoke/burn so much. But it turned out really nice if I forget the long bolts creation😁💪🏽

That sealant may work, but I'd be inclined to use a clear outdoor silicone just to increase your odds for success. It would be more tolerant of the temperature changes and uv's from the sun than the indoor sealant will be. Just a suggestion..... I've watched a lot of your vids, and I've learned a lot. Thanks, man!

Great the only difference I would do Is have the bracket at a slight angle. Only a couple of mm so the wheels are slightly wider at the bottom to the top. To me in my mind it would stop the boat when pulling from wobbling side to side and tip over while your pulling it to the beach or the slope. Love what you did. Thanks for sharing, Ray K. UK. YNWA.

If the wheels are too close to each other, in the "up" position, you might not be able to turn your motor from one side to the other. Guess how I know. So now I just remove my wheels when the boat is in the water.

@ErickMartinSucre 3 года назад
That happenned to me on the BB290. I installed them too close and the 6hp was having hard time turning to the right. The tiller kept hitting the wheels. This did not happen with my 9.8hp Tohatsu, due to it having a different tiller position. I made sure I installed these as wide as I could so that would not happen.

Can you still roll up the inflatable all the way without harming it? I'll be installing these wheels on my inflatable once they arrive and I plan to roll up completely after every use but slightly concerned they might stick out too much and harm it when rolling up. I was thinking of possibly cutting the bolts down if so. Thanks for the video!

Great videos, I love watching all of them that you make. I was wondering if you ever had the board on the inside of the bottom of your transom break? I just had mine break in the middle, not that big of a deal, I replaced it with a new piece of oak to that was sealed with Thompsons and works fine. Nobody I know has ever had that happen to them so I was just wondering if it is common or just a fluke since you've had a ton of these inflatables. I love my boat, get tons of compliments everywhere I go. I was just wondering if you ever heard of it before. Heading to Florida in March, going to check out all the magnificent things you see everyday. Thank you for all the amazing videos.

@ErickMartinSucre
@ErickMartinSucre 3 года назад
Yes in regards to the wheels on the sand. I camp often on islands, and the best way to deploy them is to empty the boat as much as possible. Usually, I unload my camping gear before I deeply them, and the roll the boat on the sand. It is quite easy when the boat is unloaded with just hej motor and gas tank in it. As for the curved ones, I have seen some viewers use it and it is pretty much the same, they just curved. The curved once work great on smaller transoms, as where the straight ones work better on larger transoms but in the end, they do the same job.
