Details on Kisko's Crystal River Florida Boat Lift

Thomas Kisko built the boat lift in the pictures linked below. He constucted the lift with the help of a student, Einque Lama, using parts supplied from www.boatliftdistributors.com

The pictures are provided to help other do-it-yourselfers. The boat lift was built in September, 1999 for about $1000 (for the motor, hardware, lumber and roofing). The existing pilings and cradle (from an old manual crank lift) are not included in the total. I did upgrade to stainless steel cable.
