The "normal" way to remove the new style fairing is with the brackets still attached to the fairing... or did the beach landing remove it for you

That trick is also useful at OSH and SnF! Just in case of torrential downpours!For nosewheel or tail wheel, a tip for parking on beach sand. Carry three square pieces of plywood with you and get the tires on top of them immediately after landing. That way it is no problem to get started taxiing off the pieces of plywood. The plywood pieces increase the "footprint" area many times over and prevent the tires from sinking in.

I think my pads are 3/8". Make two sets, just to have a spare. I have never put one under the tailwheel, but it might be good to do that too.If using plywood, what would be the minimum thickness required?
