Bolt On Wheels for Boat Lift


Recommended Posts

I've heard of a small place that makes bolt-on wheels for boat lifts. The guy I talked to thought it was a small shop somewhee around Park Rapids - but a search online isn't showing me anything, so it may be a private individual. The bolt-on wheels that I saw were on a swing arm/cantilever system that would allow you to keep them on the boat lift, but lower all 4 wheels down out of the way when in the lake.

Any clues on who makes these?

I have a similar system on my DAKA lift. They are located in Pine City.

I have a set of wheels in the middle of the frame and hook 2 cables to the lift and crank it up. The cantilever system pushes the wheels down and pushes the lift out of the muck. Pretty slick.

Fishlips,

respond back if you find the place and I'll look around also. I have been looking for the same thing. I have a place in Nevis.

thanks

Thanks for the replies....DAKA in Pine City got back to me and did say they offer these ($400/pair). That's an option....I'm going to keep looking for something closer to the Perham area. If you find anything, let me know.

thanks

Newmans make them for their boat lift and might fit yours. They have a plate with holes for 2 different size bars and axle that otter wheels go on. Once in the water and on the spot you either take them off or dig them down. I just take them off/on with a jack but in the fall I have to dig down alitte to get the jack under. I have them on all four corners and it sure makes it easy.

Try RMI Outdoors in Swanville. That is what I used. They have a website.

      Heading up to LV a week from today with the kids. Any advice for us? Staying on the West side but open to traveling if the weather permits.   The way the last few weeks have gone, might stay for good!!!

      Do have Wi-Fi in your house. Your going to need that to work with any of the cameras that send a signal and video to your phone.  Hardwire is the best but battery power workers well for about two months then you have to pull them and recharge them.  It is nice to sit on a beach in Key West and keep an eye on your house when gone! 👌

      With all the craziness in the world I’m looking at getting an outdoor security camera setup for my home. Anyone have ideas on what works well without a huge cost  and easy to do . Or is it better to go with a company to set it up.  We have recently had copper thefts in the area at farmers fields and bin sites and I know it will only gat worse as these things always do. I probably want something that hooks up to my phone as well and wondering if there is a good one with either battery life or if wired is better. Any thoughts are welcome.

      Aren't they the ones that ran into problems about illegal bait? Anyone know how that turned out?

      You launch on Moose Lake to get to the motorized portage. It's called Prairie portage. To get to the portage you put in at Moose Lake. From Moose you go into Newfound Lake. From Newfound you go into Sucker Lake. On Sucker is where Prairie portage is. There is a dock on the American side and on the Canadian side there is big sign welcoming you to Canada. Latourell's Resort runs the portage and the cost for the portage is $40 for a round trip.

      Will that blond haired kid have that cool little orange boat in the show this weekend? Saw him driving around by Muskego Point a few times this summer.

      Nope, there are parts of Basswood that allow motors.   Entry is from Fall Lake, and there is (I think) a motorized portage.   It is really popular in the spring...
