I have not even opened the box, however I got a cherry picker from harbor freight that only had a short arm where I needed a much longer arm, mine was a one ton model. so I took out the inside bar with the chain and went to the metal shop and got a much longer one had to do a little grinding to get it to fit inside to slide. I believe the one I replaced it with was 5 or 6 ft long drilled the holes and lifted 450 Lbs with no problems at all. what I planed on doing with the vistil is I bout a cheap hitch and I'm going to weld it to it stick it in my car hitch and I have bought a cheap champion electric winch with 12" leads to hook it to my car battery and just winch the blasted thing. I bought mine because I had a 900 Lb gun safe fall on me. So It should take care of your needs just fine. 200Lb is alot lighter than 450 and 900 lbs. remember those numbers are working load limits not breaking load limits. So you should be fine and you can remove it whenever you want do to the hitch. I would thing if you need 60 inches you could probably get away with 1/4 " thick steel inside bar and alot longer. hopes this helps remember the harber freight ones are even thinner. Just remember if you hook it to a dock use long lag bolts with big washers. I would have no hesitation on it. If I was computer savy I would send you a picture of mine. Never bent, swayed or buckled.

Not sure what challenge you are having, but my crank quits clicking near top of lift, and the tilt is hard to unlock to upright position. This is a great umbrella,had it about a year and very pleased with the quality and price. I can figure out ways to overcome bad engineering.

You will likely need either a heavy duty rated tripod with securely locking leg joints, and connecting rods that go from one tripod foot, to the others to stop the legs spreading, and collapsing (best option for stability), or a stand which is made for the crane. The stands are rated for up to 100 pounds. All my jibs have been mounted on stands, but eventually will be upgraded to heavy duty tripods to eliminate any minor wiggling from bumping. Also, best to get the bearing mount which uses bearings for smoother panning at the tripod pivot. Make sure the seller knows if you intend to use tripod, or stand so they send the correct mount with the crane. I always ordered both the stand, and crane from the same seller, and have yet to have an order go wrong. ;)

I cant measure the side to the mount, I am recovering from 2 recent surgeries and the 3rd is scheduled for the first week in January (one failed) I don't walk very good at this time) I can tell you, to detach the crane you just lift it out of its base, however it is heavy and the posts try and move apart. I just use a 1" wide utility strap and ratchet it tight, then lift out. I haven't tried to order an extra base, it would be nice though. I am planning on making this a trailer hitch mount as well, probably will be toward May, June depending on my back surgery success.

Your motor will not be any trouble to lift with the hoist. This is one of the best built hoists on the market. We use it for 150-200 pound sheep and other things around the farm. I would not hesitate to purchase the Foreverlast.

I have a 16' x60" aluminum Sea Ark with a 90hp e-tech. The Riptide 55 SP pulls it with ease. Awesome Motor. One battery lasts all day.

mount it to your eves. that should be about 8' turn nozzels at 45 degrees to be most effective. be sure to attach with the nails on both sides of the nozzle as shown in instructions or they will leak at the joints. hope this helps

Lifting range is eight feet. Minimum distance from the overhead to the hook is about 14 inches when the lift is fully retracted.

The 65 or 50 should work for you ,90 might be a little bit too heavy for your rod

Depends upon your Motor mounting. Worked on my 19.5' aluminum fishing boat...

The Metaltech Single Lift can be stacked as high as you want to go. Once they are stacked you will need the diagonal brace and the outriggers. If you reach 15 feet or higher you will also need the wall anchoring that should be placed every 15 feet.

The part that attaches to lift was included with mine, you would need a four foot 3/8 drive extension. Could find at Harbour Freight or maybe Amazon.

There is a steel plate that bolts to the floor with 4 bolts it has channels that you slide the plate that is bolted to the base the part you see the shaft going threw in the picture I don't know about it being standard as far as what other motors it would match up too this is set up pretty exclusively for a pontoon I would think you could order a second bottom plate to mount to another boat from minnkota and it would work perfectly. I have this on a 28 ft tritoon 2nd year I've used it and love it pulls boat around nicely. Hope this helps

David - The 500lb limit is due to the cable "crimps" and bolts used to to "pin" the pulley wheels. The hydraulic jack is rated for 1000lbs. They are low grade strength, not grade 8. I have installed outrigger feet on each side using the original foot to prevent side to side movement once crane is under load (the trouble with one foot). I have raised loads approaching limit with no problems with crane arm in the 500lb position. Like anything though, your feet etc can't be replaced - I watch everything. Mac

It's going to raise only about 4" max! Worked great for me, but I had more transom to work with. A great product and performs well for me with a 25 Yamaha on a 14' skiff. Good luck................

Depends on how you angle it and how far you pull the lever back. At full pull/45 degree angle I can launch it about 45-50 feet.

I did not mount my lift master yet, but if this helps,the torsion rod goes into one side or the other of the jack shaft opener. I believe you need 8" to place the unit next the shaft and then slide onto shaft however much to make proper connection.
