Hi Ron - information? pictures? website link? While i am all for conveniences to save backs (i am a farmer so know all about back injuries), if you have found something special and want to share, please tell us about it or show it.

Good for you Ron, But what is it? As MH said this post doesn't mean much if you don't tell us about it. As Gone Bush alluded to, messages in ALL CAPS is considered to be shouting.

This is one I built to lift the spare wheels on the OKA (they are 80kg each).
The cable runs through the inside of the curved tube. This means that the clutch winch itself can be in a fixed position beneath it and can be driven by a battery drill or the wheel brace.

Cheers,

I don't know if its just me, but I don't think I'd like to be standing anywhere near that boat motor hoist. One word - triangulation.

looking at it ,it doesn't look that strong but with the motor on as well, i swung off it ,there is some flex which is natural and doing that convinced me to get it and the guy the makes these was so helpful, that's one of the reasons i posted this . ron

yes it spins and runs in and out along the top bar so you hoist it up from the post then run it out along the top (it has a roller where the pulley is attached)then you spin it around and lower it onto the boat, the pulley is stainless steel and its self locking on the rope. ron

It looks really easy to use. For mine I would add a brace from the post to the top bar.

tony i thought that but as blackie said it will lift 90kgs as is , a brace might hinder the roller system along the top. ron
