Hi

I am a finalist student at Loughborough University, completing my dissertation project on making a windsurfing equipment transportation device.

I posted the idea of a windsurfing trolley a couple of months a go now, since the I believe I have identified a niche market for a foldable trolley that can become part of everyday windsurfing equipment, it is more for the beginner to intermediates due to the weight of their equipment.

It would be small enough to fit into a quiver bag, but also strong enough to support and carry more than one board and full quiver bag. It would also be able to carry rigged and de rigged equipment.

In order to make it more attractive to you guys it will be multi functional, research has suggested people will be willing to pay around £40-50 so ideas have to be realistic. Therefore from the list below would you be able to highlight the essentials that you believe it should have:

• Tools to aid with assembly
• Option for supporting a cool box
• Wind breaker
• Dry storage box for camera and other bits and pieces
• Chair
• First aid box

Any other comments or ideas would be extremely useful

Is this something people would leave on the beach? In which case security is an issue, or would people take it back to their cars? So there would then be less need for the windbreak and chair etc.

I would have thought the ability to lock stuff in it and lock it too something would be a huge bonus.
