Recently I injured my back and can not even pick up the front of my dinghy to roll it down to the water on the mounted transom wheels. Has anyone seen or built a simple roller setup that can support the weight of the front of the boat while pushing it down to the water. I tried using just the wheels mounted to the transom, but my 9' dinghy must weigh over a hundred pounds and just picking up the front end is impossible right now. Any help from anyone who has encountered a similar problem would be appreciated. Please help.

A small hand truck would work.

As an Rn i would recommend some down time. You will only aggrevate your already bad back by messing around in boats. Take a rest-sorry.
