Boat Lift Rehab

lift has been updated... chickened out and had a professional do it...

New lift provides lots of clearance above the water. Nice. How about a few more pics?

he is actually going to be limited by the height of the boat port due to the tower on the boat

I don't know if this is relevant or not for a newer boat like this but you might want to consider throwing two more bunks on there, much like a trailer is set up. My neighbor had a mid 80's Supra and he had the hull of his boat crack from too much pressure placed on one spot for too long. Adding to more bunks would spread out the surface pressure placed on the current two bunks. Like I said though, what do I know? I'm sure the new boats are plenty sturdy for it.

BEAUTIFUL dock on a beautiful lake by the way!

can u use straps for a dock on these or will they just not work

adsman - Looks great. I think you will be happy that you installed the pvc. Did you do the job yourself or hire it out? Where did you end up sourcing the parts from?

Do you mean lift slings?

If so, I wouldn't use them as if you are off a bit (forward or back) in the slip, you may end up with the strap on/over the tracking fin(s), driveshaft or prop.

even though i am a rabid DIYer ... i had a professional do all of this job.

that turned out good with nice support for the lenght of the hull.
