Awesome! What lift did you end up getting? How do you like it? It looks great, I love the space around the boat - for easy access to wipe the hull.
Congrats.. I can't wait to get out there.
Yeah, I tried to get started on installing the tower speakers yesterday, but after changing oil, and cleaning the interior I ran out of time. I need to get them installed along with the Seadek.
I found a used 6,800lb Rhino lift. It's made by ShoreMaster. I like it. It took a little longer than expected to lift the boat. Maybe 10 minutes or so. I will have to time it next time to know for sure. The slip is 12' wide so yeah there is a good bit of room around the boat.

Well I'm sure it varies depending on location, but I paid $4,900 for the lift so I own it. I can always sell it to get most of my money back on it. I did an annual lease and paid $3,000 for the year on the 12x30 slip. I got a 5% discount by paying in full. Works out to $250 a month if spread over 12 months.
