That’s one big-ass forklift.  Now I get it.

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):

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!
