Thanks for all the help and ideas. I think I am going with the HARKEN lifter(being a sailor as well I trust HARKEN to do a great job), I am ordering the 7803b.12 which should hold up to 140lbs. <br />I am going with a 1x2 frame for the bench support with 1/4 inch plywood for the base covered with 1" foam <br />Under the board I will build a L shaped composite plywood girder beam on each side to support the bench work, and run the cables to eye screws on the end of the two L girders. <br />Let's see if this works, will let you all know as soon as the Harken hoist arrives. <br />THANKS again for the help- especially the Harken Hoister that should solve my problem- Might even use that Northern Tools Electric winch- we'll see. ANY MORE SUGGESTIONS?
