Enhanced Cherry Picker - Engine Lift
I augmented my Cherry Picker to enable me to get things directly from the ground, or below.

Launching from the Dinghy Dock in Niue in 20 knots of wind
Niue is the smallest self-governing democracy in the world. Population only 1788 in 2001. The oddest thing about Niue is that even though it is a small island in the middle of the south Pacific it has no boat culture. No one on the island owns a boat! There is no beach. The island shore is a shear, 90 foot, cliff to the sea.
