Boat lift redesign for an '04 Mobius
I'm a new inboard owner. Really appreciate the wisdom (winterization) on this site. I just purchased an '04 Mobius LSV and I'm looking for some advice on redesigning the conventional boat lift so the bottom fins & prop/ruder do not get damaged. I would assume all I need is to redesign the brackets that secure the would rails to the cross members, but I did not know if any company already manufactures something like this or not. Thanks!

Our shorestation was set up for an i/o with relatively low bunks. The tracking fins still clear. We just have to be sure not to pull too far forward to keep the shaft from contacting the crossbar.
Best thing to do is stand in the water, walk the boat into the lift and check clearances as you guide it in by hand.

Place a decal on your boat that lines up with the forward vertical guide post where you want the boat on the lift. You can place a second one toward the stern that marks the most forward location without hitting the prop shaft , or prop depending how much clearance you have.

Have front bunks narrower than rear bunks to effectively create a stop when pulling on
