I need to do a lot of work to my Tempest and was thinking I was going to make a lift and place to store it.
I was just going to go down to the hardware store and get some 4X4s, 2X4's and some heavy duty ratchet straps and put those on some pilings (the cement things you can attach 4X4s). Thinking I would just put four vertical 4X4s with two long 4X4s for the top of the sides, two short 4X4s for the top of the ends, and a bracing it a little more with 2X4s. I would use the straps to go under the boat and hold it on those
What are the serious flaws with what I am thinking about doing? Other good (cheap) ideas? The trailer is screwed (1 1/2 mile dirt driveway basically killed it) so I am not going to move it around that much before I start working on it
Yes I will mow first
I was going to drop the keel so that is only going to have that added weight for a short time.
