Did something similar long ago with my V234 so I could pick up another boat with the trailer. I got the back off just enought to put stands under the back and a beam across on stands with the bow up enough so I could pull out the trailer. I just bought an old style hoist from the 50's that was used originally for old inboards with the bow and stern D rings that went through to the keel. This one was actually used up to last year with slings with a very new Malibu ski boat. I am actually going to convert into a boat shed with tarp to be able to pull my smaller boats off to work on them and the trailer in different ways. If it was heavy duty enough for a Malibu with an inboard V 8, should do up to my cvx 18. Next project is rotisserie idea... think i have a good plan there to use the hoist structure and something else. The hoist came with nice heavy duty top, motor, and cables, if anything would make nice portable shed for boats.
