To lift or not to lift? - That is my question. Weāll be getting a new SLX 400 bow rider delivered to Lake Lanier next spring and Iām contemplating keeping it on a lift. The boat is 12 x 39.5 feet and weighs 17K pounds dry. Our slip is sized fine for a lift at 16 x 46 feet, and multiple, reputable dealers have viable lift products for that size/weight of boat. While I know itās a much less expensive alternative, Iām not a fan of bottom paint from an aesthetics and ongoing maintenance standpoint and Iām not overly concerned about the cost of the lift. What I am concerned about is not being able to run the A/C when the boat is up and if weāll live to regret that. Weāve not had a boat with a cabin before, so I donāt know if having to āprimeā the chiller each time we put the boat in the water (which is most weekends for us from April to October) will be overly troubling. Sure could use some council from folks whoāve maybe been there and done that. - Thanks!
