Why would you need to rack store this??? Who ever is buying this type of boat will have it sitting in a covered hoist, which just happens to be right behind there $20M house!! Just like like the houses on Gordon's Pass when you head into Naples!!! LOL

I don't think size is that big of an issue. All you have to do is plan, and anywhere that can fit a 40' is going to be able to fit this. Most places I have encountered, if it is going to be busy you have to call and reserve a spot anyway. You don't hear a lot about finding a spot for a 48MTI, this is just a bit bigger.

Three suspected boat thieves, manacled and shackled, arrived at the Fort Myers Beach U.S. Coast Guard on Sunday, just a few miles from where a 20-hour, high-speed boat chase began Thursday morning.
The chase, which at times resembled a James Bond movie, ended about 65 miles west of Cuba and 125 east of Cancun, Mexico on Christmas Eve when the three suspects gave up, law enforcement officials said.
The search spanned more than 345 miles and used three Coast Guard aircraft, a small-boat crew from Station Fort Myers Beach and the Coast Guard Cutter William Trump.
A report from the sheriff's office said the boat was owned by Jack Thomas, 43, of Old Pelican Way on Fort Myers Beach.
Thomas told The News-Press on Sunday that he was on the scene of the theft shortly after it happened.
"I felt pretty confident they would recover the boat," he said, especially after the Coast Guard was able to track the stolen craft.
Thomas said this is the first time something like this has happened to him.
"You're mad," he said about how he felt. "But it has happened to so many others."
The boat was taken after an electrical box cover and wires at the boat lift were tampered with.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]551775[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]551775[/ATTACH]The pics were taken at LOTO's PB 2 boat ramp... We had no trouble there. Myco used a plastic material on the keel bunks so the boat slides right up, or off the trailer. It's actually so slick that you have to keep the power on or it slides off on its own..... so you don't have to back in as deep as you'd expect.
Yes it's big, but our little truck did fine.

Statement Marine never rack stored or at home stored the 50' passion or stray cat yet they were in the waters around here on the regular. There is marinas as well as a few ramps that work.
It's not like this is the first 57' built ever.

Leave a 1mm center console on a lift in S. Florida and it will be gone.......That type of luxury CC would get destroyed in the sun also.

It really is and the fact that it is lift stored is just amazing lol.
I have to imagine the owner of an MTI like this will stay on top of their game as far as upkeep.....now theft.....I can't argue your point there
