The small ropes on the side of the hull are where you tie the dolly to (the location of these ropes is the center of balance of the UFO all rigged up). The ones the dolly ships with are usually a bit short. Get longer ones and put clips on them.

Moving the boat around on the dolly is accomplished by standing between the bows. One hand grabs the shrouds, the other hand on one bow. Do not grab the boat from the wand crane -- it is not designed for this effort.

You can push the boat (so it moves “backwards”) or pull the boat. This is handy for shorter sailors, a bit awkward for tall folks.

Moving the boat around on the dolly is easier if you add a short line to each bow. This involves drilling the “lip” of the bows to run the line through -- similar to the grey lines for the dolly attachment. You mustseal the inside of any holes you drill with epoxy (best) or silicone (needs re-sealing every season).
