I'm thinking of getting a boat lift but am not sure if I want to deal with the troubles of putting it in and taking it out each year. I can't do it myself and everyone disappears when the water is cold
The size I would need would weigh around 500lbs so its not a 1 person job.
How do others get their lift in/out each year?
Do you pay a service? Do you grab 5 of your strongest friends? Are there lifts or something you can buy that aid in the process, maybe a winch or do I need my own personal barge? Do you disassemble into several pieces to make it tolerable to carry.
If you use a service, approx. how much is it?
I have a rocky shoreline that drops off into aboout 2 feet of water, gradually into 4 feet of water so I don't think I can just wheel it in.
