Lifting Eyes

Post by Walter Siebold »

My boot is a DF800SW 1991

Front Lifting Eyes: I understand the bolt on the front hinge (on the hull side) needs to be replaced with a forged lifting eye. Any tips?

Aft Lifting Eye: There is no bolt to be replaced! The traveler beam bolts to the hinge and I do not see space available to install a lifting eye. Where is the lifting eye located and how is it installed.

Can someone with factory installed lifting eyes send pictures?

Thanks, Walter
DF800SW Nr. 194

Has nobody any idea for solving this problem? Lifting-eyes at my DF800SW (1996) would also help me a lot when liftind the boat.

regards & thanks
