We often get asked why we have so many different types of wheels. The main reason is every club and centre, along with their members, have a different challenge when launching their boat. Whether that be a concrete slipway or a rocky beach, different wheels work better on different surfaces.
Will these fit my boat?
Most dinghy trolleys have a 1 inch/ 25mm axle, which is the standard size that trolleys come with. We also have the dimensions of the wheel on the product pages if you would like to measure and check if they will fit.
More Trolley and Trailer Parts
These are the most affordable and most commonly seen wheel around the dinghy park. The Pneumatic wheel we stock is constructed from 4 ply rubber compound that is more resistant to wear and will last a lot longer than the cheaper 2-ply wheels found on eBay. The 2-ply version will crack and perish very quickly. Don't get caught out with poor-quality wheels as you will pay more in the long run and potentially be stranded.
The Starco Puncture Proof wheels are a relatively new wheel. The wheels are constructed from plastic inner and foam tyre, making them lighter than inflatable wheels. The hard-wearing foam is great for wooden jetties or smooth slipways. However, on rough surfaces, these will struggle as they are solid and have no movement in the side of the tyre.
The Wide trolley wheels are custom wheels made for sailing trolleys. The standard trolley wheel centre with an ATV Tyre makes a great wheel for heavier boats and sandy beaches with a larger surface area they do not sink into the sand.
This is just a very quick overview of the wheels we sell. If you have additional questions please get in touch, our team are always happy to help.
Bought when I changed the wheels - arrived well wrapped with the wheels and on time. Easy to fit quality product. Good service
Easy to fit and seem to be robust as a replacement for my Trolley wheels. Arrived as promised very well wrapped. Worth checking if you need new washers and clips to add to your order.
Though not cheap this control line swivel block is just the job. Well worth the money imho.
Always can rely on sailing chandlery leading up to a busy event season ! Great service, great products all round !
Excellent, fair pricing, fast delivery! Would recommend
Slides easily through the blocks whilst providing firm grip
Item has brilliant bounce back ability, thanks
Simple to fit and makes launching and recovery simple. Well worth the investment
Quality material and design enables my lug sail to be stowed securely on it's spars
Great wide and grippy tyres for a shingle/sharp launching area and compound for an RS400.
Receive fantastic service couldn’t help any more if they tried. Arranged for me to collect my order at a time that suited even when it was outside of working hours. Much appreciated, thank you sailing Chandlery.
Excellent gloves, perhaps the best I have used. The fingers are long enough to provide protection from sheets/halyards and fit nicely so that ropes cannot get between the glove and finger. If the winter gloves are any guide they should also be very durable.
really happy with these! the thick material means that I will be warm whilst sailing, and the 3 finger coverage allows mobility and warmth on the water. the added grip will really help on the heavy wind reaches, can't wait to test them out this weekend. shipping was really quick, with a sweet included in my order thank you.
As always, great stock, quick delivery, perfect, thank you
The footprint of these is much more than standard trolley wheels so they roll on sand much easier.
