Better than expected

Fast delivery from ChasNewensMarine A+++++++ Took about 3 hours to accurately install the Quick release nuts and wheels to my SIB - Aqua Marina Aircat 2.85m. When accurately fitted, the removable Wheels comes on and off quite easily from the quick release nuts. I find it easier to have the wheels fitted and then tighten the nuts to ensure accuracy. The 8x60mm bolts were 10mm too long for my SIB Transom, had to buy 50mm bolts to ensure that they do not puncture my SIB when deflated to packed away. Would have been ideal if I have a rotary tool to cut the excess length. A spot of marine silicone in areas to ensure water tightness around the quick release nuts drilled holes. Overall very satisfied with the launching wheels

Worth the extra money but be careful re installation

This is the second pair of these I've bought. From what I could find, there are a few differently branded versions of the same wheels out there. The first set I bought (from a different Chandlery, Box marine) were slightly misaligned, my advice would be to check the wheels properly by opening and closing the full movement of the wheels before you install them as any minor misalignment will worsen with use, mine started rubbing and the metal started shearing off and were very stiff and difficult to use. Another potential problem is that the wheels don't come with a template to align the bolt holes, if you are not careful to measure the spacing incredibly accurately you will have a nightmare trying to clip the wheels on and off. Once installed and assuming you've taken care doing so and checked the wheels properly for good alignment the wheels are excellent, much better than the cheaper £50 or so ones which clog with small stones and wear down quickly. Overall excellent wheels but a fitting template would be highly desirable.
