    I'd probably be in this time too. Mine is getting pretty beat up.

    Any of you guys that added the dual wheel push the boat around by hand? I'm wondering if this would ease that task or not make much difference. Especially when it comes to grass or gravel...
    So when is this "old enough to know better" supposed to kick in?

    I'd love to see a 30 second video of someone pushing the boat around. I have trouble steering mine around the corner on the concrete, much less grass/gravel. A beer to whoever posts a vid.

    I only push it back in the garage after i unhook, then roll it forward up to the door.
    Its slightly easier with the duel wheel jack but not a lot.

    As for hooking the boat up, its A LOT easier to pull it side to side to align to the truck.

    Another thing its a LOT easier to raise and lower the boat on and off the hitch.

    I wont own another boat without one now.

    I don't know about you but I have a hard time changing direction with the single wheel. In the new garage I like to keep it crossways across the back so its deeper than where the garage doors are when they are up. That way I can raise the tower when it's inside. It's much easier for cleaning, etc. and garage boating.

    I'll have to pull it forward about 6-7 feet and make a 90 degree turn and then forward to the door. Getting it to turn if very hard, especially if I have to back up and make another cut. I've tried using the lawn tractor but there's too much tongue weight for the wimpy hitch and I have to lower it on there with a floor jack cuz the mower's hitch is below the travel on the regular trailer jack.

    If I thought this would help me roll it around and steer easier on the concrete floor I'd be all over it.

    IDK if it will but i think it will. When i had the single wheel on my LSV you would watch it torque over and it was hard to get the wheel to move the direction i needed to pull the trailer.

    With the duel wheel it moved a lot easier then a single.

    I usually end up kicking the wheel while wearing sandals-- not fun. Lately I have taken to tapping it with a rubber mallet. No fun at all trying to change directions.
