Jason,

Thanks much for your message. I checked out the nylon sling on grainger.com as you said. Unbelievable value! A couple of other questions for you: I bought my boat used and have never hauled it with a lift. The lifting cables that came with the boat are all rusted and unusable, but there are three of them -- one, I assume, goes through the port on top of the cabin and attaches to the lifting hook in the bilge. The other two, I assume, are led through the main hatch opening and attach under the cockpit. When you haul your boat with the Grainger strap, do you use that strap alone attached to the hook in the bilge? If so, is the boat very well balanced with a single strap attached, or do I need to do something to distribute the weight in the boat? Thanks again for your help.

Doug Poland
