Lifting
the
Boat
When the boat is hoisted from the wa-
ter, proper use of the stern eyes or a sling
system is required for all MasterCraft mod-
els. Though stern eyes are designed to lift
a boat from the water, care must be taken
to ensure you do not damage your boat. A
spreader bar used at the stern, will help en-
sure that the load at the stern eyes is verti-
cal. A strap placed between stern eyes, and
then lifted from the mid-point, is not the
recommended method, and will put sub-
stantial additional stress on the stern eye
mounting location.
DO NOT use the ski pylon or any portion of
any tower for lifing. They are NOT designed
to be used as a central lifing point. Also, DO
NOT use the stern ski tow as a lifing ring.
The deck may be damaged. See the Storage
Cradle sub-section of this section. Also never
lif a boat with water in the bilge or containing
a water-filled device such as a ballast system
or sack. The extra stress will put an exces-
sive load on the hull and lifing equipment
that may seriously damage the boat. Such
damage may not be covered by the warranty.
Using Lifting Eyes
An overhead hoist with an appropriate
rating capacity should be used to lift your
boat. Cables should be properly rated for
each model. Each cable should be rated at
or above the full weight of the model to be
lifted. When lifting, keep the bow slightly
higher than the stern to prevent any possi-
bility of water running into the engine ex-
haust manifold.
Using Lifting Slings
An overhead hoist with an appropriate
rating capacity should be used. Slings must
be six (6) inches wide by twenty (20) feet
long and each sling should have a mini-
mum capacity rating that is equivalent to the
weight of the model that is to be lifted. Use
an eight-foot spreader bar on each sling to
prevent damaging side pressure to the deck
or gunwale molding.
Lifing slings must never contact shafs,
struts or hardware protruding from the hull.
Damage may result that will void the warranty.
