Lift for a 38
 

Would a 10,000 lb HydroHoist lift work for a 2001 or newer 38 Light?

I would say no, I was told when I was looking that I needed a 12,000 lb lift for my 1999 35ft Fountain.....BZ

My 1998 fever needed a 12000 Hydrohoist !

My 10,000 lb hydrohoist lifted my 35 up with no problem, and continues to lift my 2000 38 fever up with no problem. My friend in the slip behind me had a 1989 38 fever with big power and big drives and his 10,000 hydro hoist raised it up with no problem.

Bob, whoever told you that you needed a 12,000 lb hoist for a 35 was less than informed.

It was the Hydo Hoist dealer!!! but wait there is a happy ending I ended up finding a custiom built 17,000 lb used Hydo Hoist and got a GREAT price and now I will NEVER have to buy another lift again......BZ

P.S. this story had a happy ending, but the 35 does look small on the lift

I had the front cables break on my 38 years ago. Lucky it was close to the water when it happened. Be careful putting it on a 10,000 lbs lift.
