in no particular order

releasable spool
wheels (that can be easily removed)
hitch receiver
holes in frame that allow for chains, carabiners, stakes, etc
splash gaurd would be dope, dont have one, but after beach winching it would be nice

just a few

One_Wadey pretty much nailed it.

I'd add that the frame be aluminum so it's no rust + light.

and a laser gun to shoot lifeguards with...

(releasable spool, aluminum frame and a throttle control where you don't have to bend down to reach it are all on my next try)

i dont understand why you need a releasable spool. you little wussies need to become men one day and this may be a good first step.
