Hobie Lift / Hoist
Hello all. Put my H14 in the water this weekend. I am trying to devise a hoist/ lift that will get it out of the water and on to the dock. I live on a large busy lake and do not have easy access to beach or boat ramp. Has anyone designed or used anything along these lines. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Scott, after a long search for a "cat" lift I picked up a used lightweight fishing boat lift a few years back. It was built to allow the cable windup wheel to be rotated 90 degrees. That gave me the sideways width I needed for my H16 beam. The lift raises lowers the boat level but sideways (so to speak). Works slick, easily adjusts to high water depths and can be placed by 2 people. Drop it down to just below water level nudge the boat off and you're gone.....good luck, T
