Hi everyone. Does anyone know of a boat side-loader capable of lifting a 3.8m x 1.6m (90kilos) aluminium boat on a second hand hard floor ct and still be a one person operation?

I know of one, the one I built myself :-)
It lifts a 60Kg (3m x 1.3m plywood dinghy onto the troopy roof rack. Initial lift from upside town on the roof to sideways on the lifting frame is by electric ram, then by hand winch to the ground.
I suppose you could build your own if you are handy with tools but the extra width & weight of your tinny requires much a stronger leverage than with my dinghy to get from upside down to suspended right way up at the side of your ct. The roof of your ct will have to be able to withstand that leverage.

Can I have another shot?

Try this one. Freestyle Boat Loader

Apart from this, you could check out some of the commercial Camper Trailer manufacturers who may sell one of their products separately.

Hi. I am new to this but I recently got a Custom Boat Loader fitted and it is excellent. Runs of a cordless drill or you can get it with a remote motor. On in two minutes and the same time off. the hardest part is taking of the tye ropes.

This is the C/T that I built in 1998 and a rough sketch of the Boat Racks with some photos of the C/T to give you a better idea.

I carried a 3.75m Alley Craft tinny because of the pivot point and leverage it was extremely easy to load and unload my 11 year old son was able to do it by him self.

If this is not enough info to help let me know and I will see if I can find the plans and send them to you.

Hope this helps

I have agency for the loader but you can see it at Custom Boat Loaders on web. They are made locally in WA but shipped wherever. Not really cheap but an excellent back saving devise that can always be onsold when you finish with it at about the same price as you pay for it.
