[QUOTE="Allen, post: 402550, member: 389"] Both the front and rear of the tubes have attachment points for lifting them. In the back there is a hole in the deck with a removable cover to get straight up and down access to the attachment point. The question then becomes what are you planning on using to lift the toon? One could maybe use a loader tractor, or multiple tractors to lift the front of the toon and get it set on the bunks, once on the bunks you could then use the same to lift the rear of the toon as the toon gets cranked onto the trailer. You would want to wetten the bunks before doing this, maybe even slicken them up with a little vegetable oil. I am pretty sure boat shops use overhead hoists to lift toons and fit/place a trailer under it. Out in the yard they can use scissor trailers to pick up a 2-tube pontoon, but am not sure how they do a tritoon that has been set on the ground. [/QUOTE]
