FAQs

How do I find my shorestation model? ›

The easiest thing to do is measure the height of the lower framework on the lift. The extrusions that connects each upright should measure roughly 2” wide x 4” tall for a 2600 or 3000 lb capacity and should measure roughly 2” wide x 5” for a 3600 or 4000 lb capacity.

Our lifts have up to 66” rack travel and work with v-hulls, sailboats, and pontoons. ShoreMaster Vertical boat lifts range from 165 to 695 pounds. Vertical lifts have capacities from 2,200 to 7,000 pounds.

What is the minimum water depth my boat lift will work in? Approximately 12"-14" plus the draft of the boat.

What are the dimensions of the sectional dock sections? 4' sections are 50.5" x 95". 6' sections are 68.5" x 95". 8' dock sections are 92.5" x 95".

How Long Do Boat Lifts Last? Boat lifts are intended to last about the same length of time as your boat — or longer if you're fortunate. With proper use and regular maintenance, it's common for boat lifts to last up to 25 years.

Sheaves are added to increase the capacity of the boat lift. for every sheave you add, you reduce the load on the motor and drive unit in half. The sheave needs to be routinely greased and should always be turning when the boat lift in being raised or lowered.

You'll need a boat lift for shallow water if you have less than 4 to 6 feet of depth at your dock. A shallow water lift by LOTO Lift can operate in as little as 2 feet of water. That's the lowest water level requirement for any boat lift on the market!

When it comes to the ideal water depth for a boat lift, we at ShoreMaster personally like our water to be three or more feet deep. However, depending on the kind of boat lift you use, you can go as shallow as nine inches plus the draft.

You should raise it up far enough that waves won't hit the bottom of the boat. If you're on a lake where water levels change (like Lake Wisconsin or the Madison Lakes), make sure the boat is high enough that large waves and/or high water levels won't allow it to float away.

How can I tell what my boat lift is rated for? ›

How do I determine the correct boat lift capacity for my boat? To find the correct boat lift capacity, you need to know your boat's overall weight including dry weight, fuel, gear, water, and any non-factory additions. It's recommended to add a 20% margin of safety to this total weight.

If you live in a warmer climate with mild winters, it's probably safe to keep your dock up and your boat lift in the water all year, but if you experience harsh winters you should plan to remove both your dock and lift to store safely until the risk for freezing temperatures is gone.

Boat should be positioned centered in lift and forward just enough that the rear taper on the bunks are showing just past the stern of the boat.

We do recommend that the wheel be removed due to wave action slowly wearing the wheel away over the course of a season. Smarte Jacks can be purchased in pairs and many people find that 2 wheels are sufficient especially combined with the lifter tools that were mentioned before.

Boat lifts have capacity limits that can range from as little as one thousand pounds to boats weighing as much as a couple hundred thousand pounds. Many individual lifts, like hydraulic options, can accommodate capacities ranging from 1,200 to 12,000 pounds.

Capacity plates are fastened near the steering area or the helm and display the maximum number of adults, the maximum gross load, and the maximum engine size, in horsepower, that a boat can legally carry. The maximum gross load listed on the capacity plate is the total weight your boat can handle.

The maximum weight capacity for our vertical lifts ranges from 300kg (47 stones) to 500kg (78 stones), though weights vary across different models. What headroom (height above the top floor) is required? The required headroom varies for each lift model, however, this is usually somewhere between 2,100mm and 23,500mm.

Standard Weights For Pontoon Boats

The average pontoon boat weighs between 2,000 and 2,500 pounds, including the motor but excluding any other cargo. The typical capacity is around 2,000 pounds, including both the passengers and equipment.
