If and/or when I find something that works for me, I will post an update in case other owners would like to what might be available. Meanwhile, if anyone does find a product that I have missed, please let me know. This gives me some time to find a good solution. I have until Spring before I take delivery of the pontoon then until Fall before I need to store it. (I figure if people had already successfully used some, then I would prefer those to some that were made locally - I didn't look forward to using my new pontoon as a test platform for a beta product that might have a few design flaws.) I thought that I would see if anyone in the Bennington owners club knew of something tailor-made for Bennington before I had some made from scratch. He did tell me the name of a friend who could make some for me. Concrete blocks provide an insulated, long-lasting structure resistant to fire, moisture, and pest. Their standard size makes them easy to work with, and they can be quickly assembled to form a sturdy wall. This dealer made the dollies on their showroom floor. This 4' wide x 8' high x 16' long Regular Concrete Masonry Unit (CMU) is used in load-bearing and non-load-bearing walls and structures.

I had asked my dealer if he knew where I could get some dollies that would work well for the pontoon. I don't have the skills or the desire to create something that skilled craftsmen could do much better. I am not much interested in doing it myself. I want to thank everyone for their time, suggestions and pictures. But, as a last resort, what would you have o lose? Just not how that kind and scale of business is done. Kind of like reaching out to GM about something they use in the factory that you’d want in your garage. Since they don’t typically work customer direct, but rather dealership direct, I’d save this as a last resort. See what products or ideas they might have. (3) If 1 and 2 above are dead-ends, you could try reaching out to Bennington. (2) Also, maybe local dealerships could point you in the right direction, be it purchasing something they use as a dealership from another party, or pointing you in the direction of a local shop that can make you what you need per idea #2 above? (1) Given what you said above about struggling to find a product that seems to be meeting your need, have you consider having some built yourself? Maybe a local or regional metal shop could make you something specific? Sometimes something custom build like that locally is as affordable (sometimes more affordable) than something via third party after market. Unfortunately, as mentioned, kind of look to be made in house. Just eye-balling the picture, I think it work with my bought if I was trying to do what your are. The size and type shown in SemperFi’s picture above that Bennington uses look like they’d work just fine for your purposes.
