Im the same Andy, I probably use them more now on the FRIB than I did the Honwave. I like to protect my bottom whenever and wherever possible :o :? :lol:

Still - a cracking design/build Donny, ingenious as it covers all your useable craft too.. :star

Interesting. Thought I might have been the only one. I will drop my wheels to protect the engine which has worked well. Took it easy going up a river with them down and saved me against a boulder identified too late. Same for when I'm entering what might be shallow water with rocks.
Wrote a note said, 'back in a minute'. Bought a boat and I sailed off in it.

What about double wheels on each axle for soft sand, instead of the proper sand wheels.
