    Replying to:Hoist for RL28
    Hi , I would like to organise a hoist for my RL28 to carry out antifoul and check the condition of the swing keel . see in the gallery a few photos of them being lifted but would be keen to hear anyones tried and true methods . I see Robin aka QE3 has used some based on 2 hi lift 4wd jacks but unsure of the method he described on the subject . From another place "A kind friend of mine lent me his hoist. It's a fairly elaborate but straight forward system. You reverse the trailer up some ramps, shove the big beam under the bum. The front beam is threaded through under the hull up the front and raised up within the tripod braces using 4wd jacks" Must be missing something here as i dont get this bit "The front beam is threaded through under the hull up the front" shane
