I am actually rounding up material to build a hoist too. I think I am going to build a couple heavy, wide ends rather than an A frame so that I can floor in the area above the beam for storage. I found several nice beams this week in Odessa. How wide are you going? I am doing 14 feet wide with 16 feet under the beam.

Here is a hoist for 950.00 in Dallas, might be to short though.

^^^^^I couldn't get an answer. That listing is about 30 days old.
VV- Do you know a good welding shop? (Haha, that never gets old!)


I am off to Sunny California for a couple weeks. Hopefully there is a warm weekend left in October when I get back.

You have a safe trip, we just got back from Denver it was like 25*, I do have a welder contact. If you need any parts to build the hoist I still have these.

Billy Loftice from Princeton.

I found a couple numbers when I googled his name, Princeton, TX. I think he is in the PVC business. Used to be in to tractor pulls.

Funny story, he used to have a 42 Fountain on C Dock in Highport. It had above the transom pipes. Sounded like a bomb went off when it popped off and was know for knocking people out of seats on the next dock.
