We are planning to have our boat hauled out of the water to fix some motor issues as well as have the bottom job done. We have looked everywhere to find out where to place the straps. We have to mark these spots on the boat for the company. We have looked in the owners manual with no luck. If anyone has any ideas where to get this info that would be great. Also where can I find out if my boat has a core?

The hull is not cored below the WL. As for the straps, you can tell where the keel is by looking at the bolts and where the shaft is by looking at the shaft log. Extrapolate from there.
If you can position the straps near to where your bulkheads are, do that. My aft sling point is pretty much in line with the aft bulkhead and the aft end of the keel. The front point is about a foot ahead of the forward bulkhead and at the forward end of the keel. Make sure the aft sling point is not putting the sling on your propshaft.
Thank you! We just pulled her out yesterday and everything went great with the straps. The haul construction had to do with installing an in hull transducer for our electronics. It won't work if the hull is cored. There was not a through hull transducer installed previously upon our inspection so we thought it better not to put another hole in the boat.
