Re: Need a hand, having issues finding a lift in Kemah

Try calling South Texas Yacht Services at 281-334-7245
or Seabrook Shipyard 281-474-2586.

They might know of someone that could load it for you, they both have lifts if you were in the water.

If you filled out the TXPWD Form 143 that is all you need to do.

Is the title in your name? They don't issue a new reg sticker until the current one expires. Stickers are good for 2 years.

I previously owned a Hunter 27 with the Yanmar 1GM. It is a great little engine and ran like a top. It was a bit underpowered, but never had any problems with it.
