Tips + Tricks launching AL floor inflatable boat with the DIY transom launching wheels.

Tips + Tricks launching AL floor inflatable boat with the DIY transom launching wheels.
Most people buy inflatable boat because it is compact, convenience, and relatively safe. But setting up the inflatable boat is not always fun and easy as most owner can tell you. It is even harder to install if you have the AL hard floor type. I have owned this inflatable boat for a few years now. I like AL hard floor boat because when I am fishing I can always standing up on the boat, and the AL hard floor feels much safer than the inflatable floor(soft floor). However, AL floor is well known for extremely difficult to install especially in launch area under pressure by other boater, your family and friends.

So in this video I am showing you how I launch my inflatable boat. I will share with you the tricks and tips how I always do it. In most case I can launch or pack everything in about 10+ minutes.
I also recently added a DIY Launching wheels to the boat and now my system is completed.
