Good choice. Stuff is hard to find.
I’m gonna do the cradle I think. Have you priced them? I’m a DIY guy, but would probably buy the cradle and install myself.Get a cradle instead of straps. Once you get the cradle level, guide posts aligned and the support bunks right, the boat will always be straight and level. Also supports the boat much better than straps.
BH-USA sells un assembled cradle kits. They are super easy to put together and install in your boat slip. I won't ever have slings holding my boat up. In the one pic with the guide post, you can see a green line. The mark is my lower the lift to line so the lower unit will clear at full tilt down and full jack plate down. I use it as a quick visual check when I come in to see if the lift needs to go down in case the tide has gone out. Also makes it easy for someone lowering the boat for me to know that the lift is low enough.I’m gonna do the cradle I think. Have you priced them?

thats a good start.
He didn't even catch you were referring to his boat.Rusty pliers, white pvc rod holders misaligned gas caps and hatch latches get me every time. Oh the skiff still looks crooked. Better test that level.
