Read Force 4 Chandlery Reviews

A pair of retractable dinghy transom wheels that are very low profile but also offer a durable pneumatic wheel that is capable of handling a variety of terrain. Quick release fixings enable these wheels to be removed entirely - ideal for fitting to an inflatable boat that needs to roll into a sowage bag. These wheels make moving your dinghy around a doddle, particularly with the additional weight of an outboard on the transom. These wheels retract with a quick one-handed motion up and out of the way when the boat is afloat so they don't need to be removed.  Key Features Low Profile and do not interfere with your outboard motor.

What activity do you use this for? Dinghy
The pins used to lock the wheels into the down position are only pressed into the frame and were so loose on the first set I received I had to return/replace them. The second set are better, but overall don't strike me as 'heavy duty'. I like the overall low-profile design of the product but the quality is not great for the price
