IFTING OF THE BOAT
Commission only a reputable lifting company or boatyard with sufficient lifting capacity
to lift the boat. In addition to the boat's weight, also consider the equipment, and other
possible loads in the boat. Always empty any bilge water before lifting.
The positions of the lift straps are shown in the figure. When lifting the boat with lift
straps, Ockelbo recommends using a forklift or lifting frame to separate the straps from
the upper hull and fender. The straps need to be vertical. There may be damages on
both hull and fender if these recommendations are not followed and any warranty does
not cover these.
During the lift, make sure that the boat is well balanced and be careful with rails and
other equipment. Ensure that lifting straps cannot slide in any direction either on the
boat or on the lifting device.
Cover hoist/lift devices with soft material to prevent scratches. Do not stand under the
boat while lifted.
