You will be living right on the edge with #4800 lift. If you have the money to live on the river, you have the money for the proper lift. Our lift is an overhead #7000 and at times I feel it is even a bit small for my Mojo. When you factor in the weight of gas, people, gear, stereo, batteries and on and on, you'll quickly see you need the bigger lift. Yeah, it is more money, but not having to worry about it would be worth more to me as the years roll by. And congrats for moving to the water!!!! Dreams do come true.
