Each year I build a milkcarton boat for our Aquatenial. The "boat" is really a raft with milkcartons for floatation, and some fancy structure on top. The whole can weigh up to 200 lbs. I'd like to put wheels on it and then tow it to the lake on race day. Do you have sugestions for wheels( detachable might be nice) for the wooden frame. I'm also wondering about an effective juryrigged hitch for such a heavy craft. Pelt me with ideas, you brainiacs!
