Hi, I would like to build a wooden stand - with wheels (for ease of moving)for my 40 hp outboard motor. Does anyone have any good ideas / suggestions for this? :p

James, I screwed the legs of a sawhorse to a dolly. You will also need to support the lower unit, so it doesn't twist the top of the sawhorse.

I plan on making one for my 25hp...I grabbed some wheels off an old furniture dolly and i plan to just fabricate some sort of framework out of scrap 2x4s and use a scrap piece of 2x8 as a mock transom.

Here are photos of some that were made by iboats members. I captured them because I wanted to make one myself.<br />
