I am goining to put in a lift for my 353. My question is how long are your bunks? If you have a lift under your 353 how many lbs. is it rated for? What hp is the lift motors. Some up close pictures would be a big help.
Thanks Jim

You want 16' bunks that go from the transom forward, then a cradle in the front. Are you lifting on a hydrohoist? I'd go with a 10k lb lift for your boat.

This is what we (and everyone on our lake) use.

Sorry I should have elaborated. It must be a four post lift I am affraid a hydrohoist would not be stable in my location.

Try a Lift from Sunstream

We expect delivery of our Float Lift next week for our new 353

I post a photo of a 271 Fas Tech on a Float Lift

jim, i have a 353 on a 16,000lb Hi-Tide "topless" lift.....it is a great lift. it was recomended to me by a good friend who is a dock builder. I have no regrets. Formula will send youu a "bottom diagram" and Hi Tide will make wooden bunks for you. Good Luck!!!! Eric

We just put our 353 FasTech on a new Sunstream FloatLift

the cover is off for printing on the Formula Logo will soon be added to the roof

Those options are very nice,my problem is facing north west with wind and boat traffic where we are bayfront floating lift would not be stable enough. Got to be a pole lift.
Thanks JIm

TRY HI-TIDE

Jim just had mine installed at Escape Harbor marina on 31 st by Howards restaurant its a 292 but go take a look at it and how we cut the bunks to fit the steps
If you need # of who bought it from let me know.Its a 13000 lb lift on four pilings which is over kill but I would rather be that way.Also Formula will email you a blueprint of the bottom with all the measurments I forwarded it to Staples and they made it 3'x5' that helped a lot

Have my 292 on an 11,000 Lb Davit Master lift which is attached to 4 steel pilings. I think the bunks are 12 or 14? Never had a problem. The boat stays there all year (ice just freezes underneath). Just bought something different so will be moving to a 16,000 or 20,000 Davit Master, but that is a different story........... Anybody looking for a good clean 1989 292SR1?
