In order for the boat mover to get a trailer under this cat, I needed to move the boat forward about 20 ft. To do this, I built four cradles with casters. Each caster is rated for one thousand lbs so this gives me a safety factor of a little less than 2.
With the cradles in place, three people were able to easily move the boat forward one ft. I did this just to test out this method of moving the boat. It worked.
