We are considering moving our R29S to Dagmars, but are concerned about the forklift haul out. We see a lot of 27s, but no 29s. Has anyone had an R29S at Dagmars? If so, did you have any problems? Thoughts and Advice?
Is Forklift Haul Out OK for R29S?

There's R29's over there at Dagmars. They also do Cutwater 32's. No issues.

I have a Cutwater 32 in Florida that is forklifted. Only issue I’ve noticed is the rear cabin door alignment is sometimes off slightly where the latch is off. I keep the door closed while lifting and seems to help.

We have our CW 302 at a forklift facility in Gulf Shores AL. 3 years now, no issues. Sure is re-assuring knowing she is safe in a hurricane rated building when we are away. No sun, No rain or wind unless we are out on her!

I haul my 2011 R29 with a fork all the time. I just make sure I remove the dingy from the weaver davits on the swim platform before a lift.

We have had our 29S stored at Dagmars the last couple winters. No issues with the forklift, if you have a tender on the back end they will want to do a bow pick. Main issue there is current and tide, they have done some dredging so that helps but you need about a plus 4 tide to get in and out of the launch slips.
