Default Boat Lift Question

Does anyone know the best location to set up bunks and where to place boat on lift from front to back? Any lift picks or input, the boat is a 1997 38 TG thanks, GB

Here is our old Top Gun. In the 2nd picture, you can sort of see how far apart the bunks are.

What type of lift are you using. The "Hydro-hoist" lifts are set up very different than the one in Bobby's pic.

By the way.....Where's some pics of your ride!?

A myco cradle would be the best set up, just bolt it to your lift, the hull will be surported like it's on the trailer. It would look some what like the surports on my lift I have for sale in the OSO classifieds for my Apache. Nice looking 38 did that come from the eastside of Michigan?
