Thanks
 
I also might try to borrow one at the clubs the races are held at as I won't be using a lift at any other time.

And it's a great icebreaker to get to know people.  My first race where I needed a bridle was at Monmouth and the Nociolos were so nice.  When I got home, I realized what the bridle was that I received with my boat.  By the way, the Monmouth Boat Club Full Moon Regatta is in June, and I think they still offer first-time skippers a free registration...
Good fun, and a great place to learn a lot.

I have complete confidence in a 8000 pound lifting strap tied with a over hand on a bight it figure eight on a bight to create the lifting point.
But borrowing maybe easier for now.
 I'm looking the mbc memorial day weekend or Shrewsbury regattas.
