TRANSPORTING your INFLATABLE BOAT

Today we are talking about different ways you can transport your inflatable boat. We are showcasing our Stryker LX 320 (10' 5") that we have attached launching wheels onto the transom to make transportation easier. When we get down to Pender Harbour later on, and we put our Mercury 9.9MH on the transom, the wheels will come in handy when we are ready to launch the boat in the ocean.
The LX 320 weighs about 125lbs and I'm going to show you how I carry the boat from our deck to the truck, making sure to bend at my knees and consulting your physician before you lift anything.
Once the boat is at the truck, you can attach the wheels, grab the front handle at the bow of the boat and lift it onto a sled deck being careful not to get it near the sharp edges(you can use cardboard to cover these so there is no damage that can occur). If you don't have a sled deck, there are several other ways you can transport your boat. For example, you can put your boat on top of your tonneau cover or inside your truck box or on a road runner boat trailer. You can also deflate the boat and pack it into 2 bags, making this transportation even easier. (Bag is about the size of a hockey bag). There are lots of ways to transport, any way you like!

Great tip for carrying the boat. Thanks!

[@mistersunshinebaby]

I gotta get one of these!

[@user-nw1ml1ew1l]

Great idea! What is a sled deck? I have a 10 foot inflatable boat and am thinking about how I can put it in the back of my Chevy Colorado pickup truck.

[@StrykerInflatableBoats]

It’s a deck to carry snowmobiles. It can be used for anything though

I have an F150 with the short bed. Would a stryker 420 fit on top of my tonneau cover..how much over hang would probably be..thanks

[@LaserCraftWorks]

Well you have a 5'6" bed. The Pro 420 is 13'7" so your overhang would be around 8 feet. If you strap it down, it would be fine. But check with your states department of transportation. Some limit overhang to 4'.

I put mine on the window but then I crashed cuz I couldn't see thanks for the video now I know it's not a good idea

[@bushmanphotos]

C'mon mate you didn't even tell us how much it weighed on the actual video or show us a side view of it on the vehicle. You put all the info in the comments section instead of on the video.

[@LaserCraftWorks]

He clearly states 120 pounds.

[@northernsurvivalbackcountr4986]

Listen closely yes he did say how much it weighed

[@mikebauman2338]

If you don't have enough common sense to lift that thing you shouldn't be operating it👈🏻😂
