RS only supply ally collapsibles which won't last on our beach.
Plenty of generic small dinghy trollies around which could deform the hulls.
I can't find a proper fitted steel A frame Tera trolley.
Anyone?
Gap in the market?

Trust me, you do not want a Galvanised steel trolley. Recent changes to EU elf & safety rules mean that some of the most useful bits of the galvanising process have been adjusted to suit those who believe that humans should be imortal, and as such a galvansied trolley will be lucky to see 10yrs use in salt water.
I want to see more all aluminium combis. |

Hammerite?
Seriously, whatever the treatment method steel is durable on a shingle beach where lighweight collabsible aluminium products are not. I have a homemade GRP pultrusion Laser troller, it's great & it floats! |
