This is an example of a safe way to safely pick up a 34 ft boat with a large forklift (care of 59-North on facebook): https://www.facebook.com/59North/photos/a.1498332766863951/3329478570416019 https://www.facebook.com/59North/photos/a.1498332766863951/3329478680416008 I think that method is much better than trying from the end as it keeps the cg much closer to the forklift (6 ft or so out) and uses straps to support the boat similar to a travel lift. Of course, it will take a lot of room to maneuver!
