Why do you want a lift?
I think boats like being in the water, its what they were designed to do, float. Every time you take her up or down she's twisting and wracking, an SD hull is not an FD hull. Once a year for haul, no big deal, but on a regular basis?
I have nothing to support this, just a fan of Keep It Simple. A lift is just one more complex system to maintain.

Lots of reasons.... keep it clean, access to the bottom, check or replace thru hulls, fix thrusters, etc. Eliminate bottom paint every 1 to 2 years, eliminate most of the bottom cleanings.
