I pull my boat at least once a year, sometimes twice. There should be no reason for the boat to slip in the slings, but you probably know this. I have the yard place the aft sling just aft of the cockpit winches . This puts the sling just forward of the skeg and aft of the propeller. If the hoist is large, you may need to tie the two slings together so that the forward sling doesn’t slide forward. Any competent yard should be able to rig the forward sling, but they’ll need guidance about placement of the aft sling. If the owner gives them bad direction, I would expect them to blame the owner. Some folks put “sling” tags on the tie-rail where the aft sling belongs.
