Hoisting boat from one trailer to another
I have a double decker trailer like the one from this website. http://www.builtrite.net/ I pull it behind my motorhome when we go to the lake. I want to use my boat in the saltwater near my home but I will not dunk this nice trailer in saltwater. I am trying to rig a method to hoist the boat off this trailer and place it on the galvanized trailer the boat came with. The boat is a 06 Lowe Stinger 175 with 60 Merc 4 stroke. The whole setup weighs around 1500lbs.
I am going to to rig an I beam trolley on one of the I beams in my barn, anfd use an electric hoist to raise it. My question is where should I hook the boat? Is it safe to use the D rings on the transom, or the lifting ring on top of the engine? Or should I try to slide straps under the hull? I only need to lift it a little bit to pull one trailer out and the other back underneath the boat. Any suggestions or warnings? |
