I'm looking at buying a small tinny to haul down the beach by myself for inshore and creek work so it must be light. I've looked at the Quicksilver 3.1, Quninnie Dart 3.1 and the SeaJay Angler 3.15.

Anyone using these units or any other I should try? The weight must be below 70kg, preferably 50-60kg.

I've got a 3m Allycraft v nose and have used it at Cressbrook and Cooby dams with a 5hp Mariner and an 44lb Minn cota on the back. It has wheels mounted on aluminium legs that fold down so I can wheel it down to the water. Great for avoiding the line up at the ramp on dusk when everyone else is waiting to back their trailers in to get their boats out. I'm thinking of selling the boat only at the moment because i've just bought a bigger one ;D.
PM me if you are interested and I can send some pics.
Regards,
HAZ

The Polycraft 3.0m is 75kg making it heavier than any of the tinnies I'm looking at which range from 50-70kg.

Hi Guys,
Whiteman, I'll send you some pics of the drop down wheels that I have on it after the weekend.
