Hi

I have 4 Gray Marine 4’s, I am looking for suggestions on a sturdy design for a rolling cradle ? Pictures appreciated!

Thanks
Anthony

I have used these for years. They are for K or M engines but could be made in any size. Wheels are from Home Depot. Note that one has risers to simulate the angle as if in the boat. If you were nearby I would give them to you.

Use large diameter casters ie 3-4 inch.

Did the same thing. Works like magic. And beyond easy.

Built this one and with adaptive risers, has worked for test stands for an MCL and a Graymarine V8. I use a forklift for moving it around the shop but wheels could be installed too.
