Hi - Just got a 5000lbs Floe boat lift. Was wondering if any was also using a boat lift for their 232 and where they determined their approximate center of gravity was? Also, how far apart to you have your lift bars? Thanks in advance.

Just put a 2003 Captiva 232 on a Tide Tamer 7000 lbs. lift two days ago 3-21-15. The cradles are 29 inches apart and it sits about 2 inches above the lift cross beams. Seems okay with the stern drive hanging just before end of the cradles. Not sure of the center of gravity but figuring most of the weight from engine and fuel its somewhere close to aft of the cockpit.
