    Holy shit...that is amazing. Not only will that likely be out of my budget for life, we could never get away with building like that here. 100 feet back from the shore...

    It is basically a tram for a boat and operates much like a railroad track. The tracks extend about 30 ft into the water at winter pool and the cart holding the boat on bunks like a regular boat trailer is pulled up tracks with a winch and cable. The rails cost about the same as a double lifting dock and they are basically there forever vrs a dock and can't beat year around dry storage. They are pretty common on my lake Pickwick and depending on the terrain can be built by yourself. My fathers place had a gentle sloping bank and we just made sections and floated them out using floats.
