Im building a 16 by 8 dock for my pond and have been pondering the options of the boat....currently the HMS Oswald, a 12 foot aluminum vintage JB, is pulled up on the bank after each use. I can continue this effective approach but have been thinking it would be a lot nicer to have a way to "lift" it and not have to tug, pull, strain the craft onto shore. But I an not interested in a lift that costs 4x the value of the boat. So question is, what have you seen, built, done, or just designed in your head that I can steal and use?
