For those who keep their boats on lifts in northern climates, how do you set them in the spring, remove them in the fall aside from writing a check. For years I've used my neighbors float but want to do my own thing going forward (less dependent on others)
Here is what I used in the past and they no longer make them.
I've looked at a couple different systems (boat lift helper and boat lift lift) and they are around $1400. Seems a bit high. It looks like all I need are some dock floats and a couple winches and I can have my own. The lake bottom is mucky where the back corner of the lift sits so I need something to pop it up and move it to shore.
Any ideas?
