Lifting and pulling a Pro Angler on a dock

I'm considering purchasing a Pro Angler 12 or 14 and storing it on my floating dock. From the water to the edge of my dock is 18 inches. Is it possible to lift a Pro Angler bow up 18 inches off the water and then pull/drag on to the dock or is just too heavy. I'm an older guy but still in good shape. Would the 12 be easier if possible? The edge of my dock has a rubber edge protector.

The answer is yes, if you at least attach a line to the bow carry handle to lift it up from a standing position....so you are not bending over to yank it onto the dock.
A easier way is to mount a 9" wide boat trailer roller to your dock. This will greatly minimize the friction both on and off the dock.
I have a 9" roller on the end of my Hobie trailer that carries my 2013 PA-14.

I just saw a good video on loading/unloading and dock launching and removal. Some good tips in this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7zB_9TxtSo
