Shore station removal Low lake level

[roger56]

My brother has a problem in removing his shore station with the water level so low. The person that usually removes the station says the water level is to low for him to remove it from the lake. Station is in less than 1 and half feet of water. Station weighs approx. 600 pounds. Station sets about 60ft from shore line. Not sure about how to move it to shore short of getting as many strong guys an lifting it and moving it to shore line?

I'd go with the strong guys. What kind of shore station weighs 600 lbs?

Truck inner tubes....... Inflate and use them to help take the weight. A truck tube will easily support 300# + so even if you only had two to support one end ...... they will help. You will have to design a support to hold the legs (piece of plywood between the tube and leg) it will ease the movement towards shore.

OR

Lot's of willing friends and a few cases of beverage!

It is a Lift to get boat out of water next to your dock usually with a canopy cover. Made of aluminum with a crank to lift boat out of water.

I like your idea two cases and One before and then one after it is moved.
