If that's possible though, maybe you could just have the boat moved in/out for the season and not need to buy a tow rig for it.

If we could get a slip with a hoist for the boat where we fish then yes it would be sitting at the dock. There is only one place that can handle that size boat in a lift and as you can imagine it's a hot commodity and there's a wait list many years long. I refuse to put bottom paint on a CC and leave it in the water like a yacht, oh the humanity lol.
Years back we had a twin inboard diesel 38' boat with a covered hoisted slip that was supposedly up to the task for that kind of weight. One day we found out otherwise when we got a pic of the back end of our boat sitting in the water and the bow pointing skyward. Talk about your heart sinking, that was a messy situation with the marinas insurance and lawyers.
