Thanks guys.

The rope trick sounds good, but the CoG of these Waves is very far back (behind the shrouds), and they will roll out the back just as easily without some sort of cradle/friction.

I like the handle idea, and have used them. Maybe I was doing something wrong, but it didn't seem like a huge improvement.

I realize that boring the hole will be a challenge. I may get machine shop help if needed. I don't think the weight would be substantial.
