some personal projects

[Mike]

last month I gought a boat lift dover frame it was 16' wide by 30' long I cut anf spliced each bow down to 12' wide and shorten the top to 26' long

mocked it in the side yard




after measure for the cover I installed it on my lift pillings working from in my 20 fishing boat. I had to slide the fame back and forth tp assemble it


then I cut and sewed the canvas using odesey 3
that was fun installing it with grometts and ball bungys to secure it
and then before I could get back to installing the new motor into my crownline deckboat I bought a used elevator boat lift online so I didn't have to use the old pia davits I have on the seawall

were I got it

I installed the lift myself using a pump to jet the I beams intro the canal. the hardest part was threanching 150 feet of 220v cable.  now my covered lift is ready for the deackboat once the motor is in


the davit are a pain musling the arms in with the boat hanging on them



today I rented a mini backhoe to install the motor in the deckboat this morning got it done before the afternoon rain.

What Happened!

Oh I see put it on the other side, had me wondering there.

I think your a great guy Mike! now your visitors can stay awhile with their boats on a lift.

A good find for sure
