Reply to: Sweet boat storage setup

[quote=davefarmer][img]http://www.thebeachcats.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=112947&g2_serialNumber=3[/img] This is my marine railway on Flathead Lake in NW Montana. It's a simple cradle/platform with two carpeted crossbars that have vertical posts with rotating pvc pipes, that help guide and retain the boat in choppy seas. The cradle is pulled up the rails with a $50 Harbor Freight 12 v atv winch. The rails were fabricated with 3" x 3" square steel tubing with a 1/4" x 4" cap, on which run four 8" trailer wheels(no tires). The lift is nestled so far up into the trees that I can often rig both main and jib before launching. If not, I have the luxury of an outboard that allows a slow motor into the wind to raise the main. Pictured on it is Flight Risk, which has moved on to a new owner on the Chesapeake. I now use it for the ARC 22 'Lunatic Fringe'. A new extended hulls SC20 should launch sometime this coming season.[/quote]
