About Boat Lifts

Sometimes, the trick to keeping your boat well maintained is to get it out of the water. While it is built for wet environments, it still wears down over time, so using a boat lift to get your craft out of the water when you’re not using it can help extend its life. Stop by MarineMax in Nisswa and Crosslake, Minnesota and we’ll help you find the right boat dock for your boat.

Boat Lift Benefits

There are lots of great reasons to get a boat lift, and not just because it helps keep the water from wearing down your boat (although that’s also very important). Boat lifts give you a way to store your boat and keep it dry during the winter, without having to pay extra money for a slip or storage unit or take up space in your garage. This also means no extra gas and time wasted towing your boat to a storage area. In fact, you’re probably going to spend lots of time in the water it’s hovering over, so towing in general will probably be pretty minimal. Finally, if the wind or wake starts to pick up, there’s less risk of debris hitting your boat or your boat getting pushed into the dock and damaging it.

Think About Your Boat

Of course, choosing the right boat lift is going to require understanding which lift is right for your boat. The biggest factor in this is weight. You never want to get a boat lift that can’t handle the weight of your boat. And keep in mind, the weight of your boat isn’t necessarily going to be the dry weight that you can look up online. You’ve probably put gear in and features on your boat that add weight, plus any additional weight that the water might add. These all need to be accounted for when you’re looking at boat lifts.

Also think about the type of boat you use, specifically what the hull looks like. Think about the type of boat you have, your bunks, and the draft, as well as any other information that might be pertinent. This will give you (or the person helping you) an idea of how deep the water needs to be in order to properly lift it.
With this in mind, it’s time to stop by MarineMax to check out some of the boat lifts we have available right now. We proudly serve Minnesota Boaters just like you!
