Kinda gives new meaning to the question, "How's it hangin', Skools?"...

hi i like the idea of hanging the boat but how strong are those lifting points on the boat will a fitted out boat less engine take the wait on a v20

Good question, esp with the I/O motor in the boat which makes the boat pretty heavy. I would also be worried about the beams of the garage.

Tether the stern to a solid anchor point. Pull the trailer out with your tow vehicle about two foot. Block the stern up and pull the trailer out about 3/4 of the way. Now jack it off the trailer and block it and pull your trailer on out.

a hammer drill and a tapcon can make for a solid anchor point in concrete in short order

Its not too bad. I did it about like bksah2. Blocked up the keel and the chines on the stern and the keel about middle way down the hull and pulled the trailer out by hand.

That's exactly how I do it. Done it several times that way... works like a charm. (Although, now that I have a 2 1/2 bay garage, I'm liking Skools method of hanging it a lot).

I like Skools idea too. But my garage is lucky to support itself, much less a V20. I am kicking myself for not replacing my rotted 4x4 roof supports and poles with a 3-layered 2x12 beam. When I roll the V out to flip it upright again I might upgrade my roof supports.
