[Rhodes22-list] Boat lift in Texas by new guy

[ed kroposki]

Slim:

I think that the guy had the lift made using Todd's bunk measurements while
waiting on Stan to Deliver late in the spring(?).

BTW if you are ever in Georgetown, South Carolina, you might want a short
cruise on this excursion sail boat.  (See attachment)

Ed,

Oh, was it Texas?  Do you remember who it was or when it was so we might
find the pix in the archives?  I skimmed through several months searching
under the topic, boat lift, but didn't find it.

As I recall, it was a pretty cool design.  He had it sideways against his
sea wall or dock or whatever (IIRC he was on a canal) and you'd pull the
boat into the lift and then when you were ready to go again, you could
either back out or pull forward.  Home-made too, wasn't it?
