Adjusting boat lift bunks for 228 ??

[rorkin]

I am going to put a 228 on a lift.. Previous boat actually had the keel just touching the cross arms.. I never thought that was quite right..
anyone have a tried and true procedure for adjusting the bunks ??
Thanks in advance

Dont you just have two parallel bunks? You will probably have to push them together to keep the v of teh boat from touching the cross members. If you find that the bunks have to be too close together and dont provide enough support, then you may have to fine a way to raise the bunks higher so the keel doenst touch the lift.

Make sure you have the boat also tied to the lift with some safety teathers for storms with excessive high tides :lol:

That or never leave home again

I set the bunks at the same width as the width between the stringers. Seems to make sense to provde the best support to the hull..
