I am trying to locate a spot to install a garhauer outboard lift but on a 33.6 hunter with two stern seats and full folding transom, I am struggling to find flat surface on which to attach the ball mount. Questions: (1) has anyone here installed a garhauer outboard lift on a hunter 33.6 and where if you did?
(2) how do you get access to the underneath starboard side near stern? Someone suggested I remove the screws and then the liner to the propane locker to maybe get access. Has anyone done this?

Thanks.

I installed a Garhauer motor lift on my H44. Since I didn't want to put any more holes in the boat, I made a custom plate out of starboard to go over the baseplate of the arch. Removed 3 bolts and replaced them with longer bolts. It works well. Garhauer worked with me for a slightly longer base pole and you may need additional offset from your rail depending on placement. I just took the lift off as I had an arch installed for the dinghy/solar panels and it doubles as a motor lift. I have attached a couple of pictures.

What did you use to make the custom plate? I am not familiar with "starboard" other than starboard meaning right. The pictures are helpful and I will take a look at my arch. Thank you.

Starboard is a plastic marine board that is available from marine suppliers...Defender, West Marine, local shop. Google Starboard material and you will get a lot of options.
