Preferably Wheeleez, Hobie, or something that's built better than the piece of crap that I just broke.

Thanks!

Lost mine and ordered beach wheels but are on back order until end of June, so I made these because I didn't want to wait or pay the pricey $160 they ask for.
Home Depot and about $30 bucks later I came up with these. They're solid.

Wheels purchased at harbor freight for about $5.99 each. Hold up to 300lbs each

How's that do in the sand? Im replacing my plug in with this from amazon http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00C1V4GP6/..._-T-Ltb1PQQ771 its a great price hopefully those wheels are good enough. It's rated at the same capacity as the wheelez at a way cheaper price

Not great in sand, just a temporary until my hobie sand cart comes in from back order. Great everywhere else though! I had a pair of hobie wheels similar to these, lost them and decided to get creative.

Thanks for the pic! I made a similar Palmetto type out of PVC, but I'm ready for a more sturdy, preferably scupper type, setup for sand.

Sorry I was gonna sell my other one but the amazon one is hard to stabalize so I used the beach wheels from it on my plug in one.

Could put two wheels on each side to make it handle the sand a lot better
