The stern eyes must be used as tie down points for
trailering the boat. The bow and stern eyes may be
used for short term lifting of the boat such as for
service. Long term lifting with the bow and stern
eyes may cause stress on the fiberglass and gel
coat.
For long term storage, use flat, wide belt-type slings
and spreaders long enough to keep pressure from
gunwales. Do not place slings where they may lift
on underwater fittings.
